[Opinions] Celebrity BAs
Russian businessman (and Chelsea owner) Roman Abramovich and girlfriend, fashion designer, Daria ‘Dasha’ Zhukova welcomed their first child together, a son, born on December 3rd. They named him Aaron Alexander (Alexander is after Dasha's father). Roman’s older children with ex-wife Irina are named Anna, Arkady (named after Roman's father), Sonya, Arina and Ilya.-I find this name choice unusual for two Russians. Shouldn't his middle name be Romanovich? Or maybe he has two middle names and the patronymic is just assumed? I know Roman's other kids have Romanovich in their names.
Otherwise, I like all the kids' names and Daria 'Dasha'.American rapper Lil Wayne (Dwayne Michael Carter) and American singer Nivea Hamilton welcomed a son named Neal on November 30th. Nivea has older daughter Navy Talia and Lil Wayne has older children named Reginae, Dwayne Michael III and Lennox Samuel Ari. -I like Talia and Samuel Ari. Nivea is one of my GP, but I'd never use it.

If they're in the US or some other country where patrynomics aren't used, then maybe they just used the new homeland's traditions. Aaron doesn't sound like a Russian name either.

They live all over the place (London, Moscow, etc.), but I believe that their primary residence is London.

I like Daria and Arina; Aaron Alexander and Neal are both tasteful.
