Atreyu? That's the name of a band, let alone the kid from Neverending Story.And Riddik? Guess those parents really liked Pitch Black and it's sequels.

I don't see where Christopher is so bad as a middle name. And their father is simply borrowing a custom from other cultures. In Russia the middle name is always a derivative of the father's name, and there are also some Muslim cultures where the father's name becomes the middle name for all children of either gender.

Electa-- Trashy, IMO.
Adia-- Weird, IMO.
Barrett-- BARE-it, or bar-ETTE? Kind of like Barrett. :)
Athena-- NMS.
Destiny-- NMS.
Brook-- I like this better than Brooke.
Airyanna-- NMS. But I like Ariana.
Praise-- Cool. Actually, very interesting!
Tiille-- Huh? Horrid.
Kindahlynn-- See "Tiille".
Auroura-- Not too bad. NMS, really, but it's okay.
Silena-- I like Selena, and I actually saw a 5-year-old girl with this name a few monthes ago. From then on, I liked it.
Skylynn-- Neat!
Raynie-- I like Raine better.
Chaise-- Don't know about it on a girl, but this isn't too bad. I like 'Chase' better, though.
Autumn-- ADORE this! Such a cute name! Also, I love the season, so it has good associations for me.
Innocents-- Cutesy, or trashy. I could go either way. Not good at all.
Love-- NMS. Lame, IMO.
Felicity-- Ugly. I don't know why everyone likes it so much.
Shiloh [Brother: Chance]-- Like both names. Shiloh is a recent favorite of mine, and Chance is growing on me.
Kailer-- Interesting. Don't know if it's MS, but it's okay.
Echo-- I like the history of it, but it's NMS.
Journey-- Not too bad.

Cherish-- NMS, rather ugly, IMO.

Electa- Electra missing the R? Or ambitious parents with presidency wishes for DD?
Adia- Looks like Adi elaborated. Weird.
Barrett- A surname, If not, then a boy name.
Athena- Nice. Too close to Athens though.

Brook- meh
Airyanna- I couldn't rekegnizze this at first!
Praise- Fine
Tiille- One parent wanted Tile and the other Ttiillee and they compromised? Strange, anyway.

Auroura- Probably weren't considerate enough to alter the pronounciation as well as the spelling to make it sayable.
Silena- After they called her sister Noisa, they needed a break.

Electa- Electra missing the R? Or ambitious parents with presidency wishes for DD?No, this is probably someone who has resurrected a name from their family tree. Electa was fairly common as a given name among the descendants of the Puritans in New England and other northern states in the USA during the 18th and early 19th century. It didn't refer to electoral politics, but to the Calvinist concept of "election" in the spiritual sense. Here are a few examples of 19th century Electas from genealogy sites on the Web:http://jrm.phys.ksu.edu/Genealogy/Needham/d0003/I428.htmlhttp://cs.clarku.edu/~djoyce/gen/report/rr17/rr17_100.htmlhttp://www.familytreecircles.com/journal_5896.htmlhttp://www.bluewolverine.com/genealogy/genealogy.php?op=indiv&id=I18http://www.gentree.com/cgi-bin/igmget/n=Hurlburt?ID3872P.S. And here is Wikipedia's explanation of the Calvinist concept:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconditional_election
