I've been waiting for one last baby to be born to post this and now he's here. A lot of people I know have have babies recently so here are the announcements, parents are in parentheses:

---

Keziah, sister to Christian (7) and Zachariah (1) {Mary and Frank}

---

Kohen Allen, brother to Peyton [g] (1) {Hannah and Kaylan}

---

Francesca Grace "Frankie", sister to Luca (3) {Briar and Kyle}

---

Emelia, sister to Garrus (3) {Trudy and Ethan}

---

Johnny Warren, brother to Jack (3) {Laura and Anthony}

---

Summer Jayde {Hayley and Will}

---

Freyja Primrose, sister to Arielle (4) {Caitlin and Codey}

---

WDYT?

I like Christian and Zachariah and I like Keziah, but together they're too matchy, particularly Zachariah and Keziah who are also close in age. I knew Peyton's brother would have a trendy name that I'd dislike (I never could get behind Cohen/Kohen/Koen) plus the double -n endings make life difficult. I know every single person on this board will disagree with me about Francesca but this is one of the worst BAs I've ever heard and what makes it worse was that I was expecting something grand after Luca. I don't at all like the way they've spelled Emelia but it's worlds better than Garrus. I find Jack and Johnny too close for brothers, I would have preferred to see Jack and Jonathan. Summer Jayde feels very "5 years ago" to me but it's okay, in fact it'd be my favourite out of these BAs. Again, I expected a decent name after Arielle and was sorely disappointed by the disjointed, ugly-sounding "Freyja Primrose".
