They're mostly nice, but...Ava? It's been used to death by celebrities! Get over it. And I hope this guy is Greek-American. There are plenty of beautiful Greek names, both ancient and modern, to choose from, so why stick the kid with a stale English name?

I was wondering the same thing about Ava. So many cool Greek names...

I think Gabrielle Kathleen and Alexandra are a nice sibset, and Marcus is attractive, as well. And I still think Ava is very pretty, no matter how popular.I don't understand how the spelling of Skyler makes it masculine and Skylar makes it feminine. Am I missing something? LOL. Either way, the kid's name is pronounced the same.I don't like Dwayne, but obviously, it's a family name.

Most of those are great, but as much as I WANT to love that first name, I keep hearing the name Ava being replaced with "Dia" in my head. I think with Rhea for a middle name almost any other first name would have been better. It's too bad, too. Rhea and Ava are both nice names.
