Got a mate who's daughter is named Chiara but pronounced Kee-ara.
Every time I see her name on fb I think " Chee-ara"

Have met a few birds named Chiara over the years. Prefer this spelling over 'Kiara' (if only for the fact it's what I'm used to).

People who double up with the same first name and surname. Kate Langbroek did it to her son. Called him Lewis Lewis.

Is the Italian equivilent of "Claire". Fine as a name, though both mean "clear" FWIW.

Jamie and Jools have now given us a son:
River Rocket Oliver
He joins siblings Daisy Boo, Petal Blossom, Poppy Honey and Buddy Bear.

Jebus. You can't say they're not imaginative.
I actually find Jools the most annoying of those names.
Arrgh...way to ruin a nice name.

What's wrong with Juliette?
FWIW, Buddy Bear is my No. 1 hate while the girls' names are more palatable and semi decent.
Surprised they veered away from flowers.
Its more the middle names. Buddy Oliver isn't great, but not terrible.

Wife's friends just had a son and gave him the name Barnabus Walter.
I think they might have gotten their centuries mixed up and thought it was 1816 instead.

Maybe i'm being harsh but keep thinking of this whenever i hear the name.
Will get called Barney his whole life, and I couldn't take a grown adult called Barney seriously.
They are pronounced the same and they both are yuck.
