[Opinions] Re: Finnish BAs
Some comments:I don't like Linnéa with the é. Seems unnecessary to me. (There are awful many Linneas in this list.) Matilda is pretty.
Inna Valentina is beautiful! My favourite out of these.
Iiris Kerttu Ilona - Kerttu is sweet. Would love to see it as a first name!
Rauha Hedvig - is beautiful
Amelie Norita - Don't really like this, but I'd like to hear the story behind Norita.
Leena Irene Maaria - Leena!!! This is exciting, I wasn't expecting to see baby-Leena yet.
Lina Helmi Tuulia - Like this.
Matilda Sohvi Esteri, brother Urho - Nice. I keep changing my mind about Sohvi, but the combo is quite pretty.Roope Aimo Aukusti - I like Aukusti and this combo flows really well, but I'm not excited about Roope.
I like Edvard, really dislike the E-sibset.
August Arvi Juhani is cool.
Joona Tapio - ooh! Lovely.
Matias Kaarlo Kristian - I'm not a fan of Matias, but Kaarlo Kristian is lovely.
Timi Jesperi, brother Juksu Kasperi - Juksu? Why? I wonder if they've named the boy after the Moomins character. Kasperi and Jesperi as middle names are fun - maybe their next son will have Joonatan(i) as the middle name.
Nikolas Emil Mikael - Really great!_________My PNL: http://www.behindthename.com/pnl/49995

I agree about Linnea: it's a pretty name, but so popular nowadays and thus quite boring.I also swooned for baby Leena! I've also seen a couple of Liisas in the recent BAs, which is delightful. I'd like to see more of these baby boomers' names used, also in boys' names.And I think I've seen another Juksu in Finnish BAs, probably a year ago. I can't say I like this name: it just sounds very infantile.

Aww, baby Liisa! That's precious. For boys, I think Olavi is ready for comeback, and I saw Eino in yesterday's paper's list for baptised babies. I'm looking forward to seeing a baby Reijo, Pirkko or Ritva. :)
