Other comments...
Jett Jarrad (Jarrad & Laurie; Chevy) - A Jett and a Chevy?! Someone needs to tell these people they are children, not modes of transportation! :b
Kynan Robert (Kerrin & Jodie; Caitlin, Emily) - Is Kynan a real name? They go from the terribly overused Caitlin & Emily to the I-just-threw-together-some-random-letters-to-make-a-trendy-name name like Kynan *scratches head*
Eydie Jazelle (Scott & Erica; Bella, Lulu) - I've never heard of Eydie before (sounds like I.D.??) but Bella and Lulu sound like pets' names to me :b
Georgina Ruth (Jonathan & Danielle)
Jemima Valerie (Trevor & Julie; Jamie) - That sibset is a tongue twister (but I like both names separately, lol)
Justice Ryder (Steve & Sharon; Shelby) – assuming this is a girl! - I would assume boy :) Either way, it sounds like the meaning of the total name should be "one who rides justice" LOL
Khandace Lalaney (Nick & Narelle) - That's a doozy!
Montana Rose Lexley (Tiny & Grace)
Montanna Amelia (Justine & Jodie; Brianna & Hannah) - Okay, 1) two Montana/Montannas born in Australia?! lol And Montanna, Brianna, and Hannah?! Please tell me they're kidding! I think that's child abuse. :(
*BTW, I noticed a lot of nicknames as formal names (Charlie, Ellie, Evie, Tom, etc.). I wonder if this is a new trend or something that's just more common in Australia than it is in the U.S. I noticed in with some of the British B.A.'s as well. If it's a 'newer' thing, I'm sure it'll catch on in the U.S. eventually (but that's not a good thing imo, at least in this case).

Yes, the nicknames-as-full-names thing is more common here than in the US, although not as common as it is in Britain.
Re Montana - TELL me about it! I find it absurd that otherwise perfectly sane Australian parents are naming their kids Montana, Indiana, Dakota etc. It's bizarre. And yes, the parents of Brianna, Hannah and Montanna should be slapped lol.
