Alexander Wolf Wroth Stockton is awfully difficult to say.:)
Nice to see two Agathas, and Aian is interesting - any idea where it's from?

Well, Aian's mother’s maiden surname is English, dad’s first name is Arabic and his surname is quite unusual and apparently most common on Mauritius and in the UK. Her middle name Geeta, might be a variant of Indian name Gita. My guess is that the parents made it up, probably influenced by names like Aina or Ayan or adapting an family name from the father's side.

I love the names Alexander and Arthur! So, I think, the combo Alexander Arthur is very nice, but I'd prefer it the other way around; Arthur Alexander. I really like Archibald Thomas, Alice Elizabeth, Audrey May and Annabel Rose. Also Henry, Anna, Jonathan and Hugo.Artemis Calypso is too much I think... I like both names on it's own, but not as a combo.
