This is why you never tell people what you're planning to name your children before they're born. People are always willing to offer an opinion before but will keep it to themselves if they find out after the kid is born.

Thought of one - Madison? Macy as a nickname for that would be pretty cool.

Not only is there an Eberle, but there is a Stajan, Smyth and Seguin on the guys list.

Who are these people?

For your faith in the human race it's best you just don't overly dwell on this and move on.

What kind of narcissistic a-holes pay for a newspaper ad to announce their child is moving from pre-school to kindergarten? That's not even a real accomplishment.

Huh? The names of the parents aren't in the ad (they're just listed as "Mommy and Daddy"). Khayleigh-Huntyr is presumably Kharringtyn-McKhynleigh's older sister.

There's an "M" sound, an "A" sound and an "S" sound in both names. It's not that far of a stretch and at least it gives her the option of being able to use a more conventional name if she chooses.

Just read about a Kaydee... FML people. It's okay though as my future step-daughter's name is Ryelee. I have advised that non-traditional spellings/names are out of the question and we will also have no children named after alcohol. Kids having kids.

So anything that ends in an 'a' for girls, and an 'n' for boys? Got it. If I have a girl and a boy one day, I'm going to respectively name them Pizza and Batman.

That's a pretty vanilla group of names.
