Baby names

Instead of the post I had planned to write about having guests for a holiday, here are a list of actual honest-to-God baby names from my city and the surrounding areas, as published in the local newspaper:

First names:
Nailuj (which, naturally, is Julian spelled backwards)
Reign
Eian
Premiere (SERIOUSLY?)
Junior (SERIOUSLY?)
Caneron (Maybe this is a typo on the newspaper's part? I hope?)
Josselin
Bless
Major
Giovanthony
Maxwail
Maizen
Lai'La
Gracie (because apparently she'll never be a professional business-type person)
Miley (I think it's typically not a good idea to use someone else's family-nickname-then-stage-name as a legal name for a child)


Double whammies (first-middle combos)
Malazha Renae-Anne
Jayleana Royanne
Aviana Anii
Serenity Briquelle (Serenity isn't too unusual, but Briquelle?)
Seona DeNice
Ashantis Cristal
Casmeire Tiwayne

I swear to you that I transcribed all of these faithfully.
