some yay, some nayI think Jordyn Braxton is AWFUL, sorry. Surname as fn - usually not. Jordan for a girl - no. Male name feminized w/ a y - no. So, all-around gross.None of the other girls' names capture my imagination, though Ella is okay. The boys fared better. Christopher Richard, Liam David, Zachary Thomas and Miles Xavier are all very, very nice. I like Jonathan pretty well, but Joshua is overused around here. Brostrie - no. Kefir Zede - I'm uncertain of its cultural origins, but I don't think I like it.As for parents, Navadene obviously very unusual, nms. Ditto for Kirra. I am unfamiliar w/ Kunda; sounds African?

Alexis is a Greek boy's nameNice to see that even in USA people know that. Nice enough names but these caught my eye:Jordyn Braxton: Sounds rhyming and could be a boy's name as well as a girl's. Only the spelling of Jordan tells that it is probably a girl.Brostrie? Maybe a family surname?
Kefir Zede: Apparently from another culture. Kefir is a sort of youghurt.
Donald: Some dare to use "dated" names
Kunda: Sounds African, I think of Kinte Kunte in "Roots""But it’s all right now.
I learned my lesson well.
