Tennis star Lindsay Ann Davenport and husband Jonathan 'Jon' Leach welcomed daughter Lauren Andrus Davenport Leach on June 27th.
Lauren joins big brother Jagger Jonathan.

Although I'm not a fan of any of their kids' names I like that they each got the honoring initial J-J / L-L.

I hate the name Lauren (I can't believe it's a feminine of Laurence...I'd much rather see Laurencia)
I also think Andrus is too masculine, especially since it means "man." Who gives their daughter a name that means man? Why not use Andrea?

Her mn is Andrus? The meaning kind of defeats all attempts at making it unisex...

So, I hate the little J and L theme they have going on...
Not only that but the girl has the same initials as the mom and I bet the boy might too, or they let it go because his mn is the dad's name.

Besides the theme, I don't really care for any of the names.

Lauren and Jagger?

Personally I don't like that they are so discordant. Lauren should have been given an edgier name to match her brother a bit better, in my opinion. They are both ok choices (Jagger's not my style but it's pretty hip), but together? They just don't work for me.

I don't care for Jagger and Lauren seems a bit boring, imo.

NMS I prefer Loren this way & on a boy, and Jagger on girl
