Or even HAvier as in the word 'hard', with a latin american twist. (Mexico, Texas etc...)

For some reason, I prefer that one.

That's amazing.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: it's downright sad that the authorities in some countries even allow these weird names. This is something were "Think of the children!!!one11!!1" is in order.

The weirdest name I would ever give one of my children is Róisín. But I probably wouldn't sinds it sounds weird in combination with my Belgian family name.

Jennyfivetina, Nafeteria, Blenda and Dianarea are probably my favorites.

Utah Baby Namer is a goldmine.

I think it would suck to have one of those unisex names. You know, like Jamie, Alex, Frances, Dylan, Ashley, Blake, Chris.. etc.

Blake is a girl's name?

What the devil, there is nothing feminine about that name. Parents are crazy.
