Help[Opinions] Re: Australian BAs
in reply to a message by blue_belle
These stand out :
Zavier & Samara Pixie May - So playful!
Marco & Sierra-Rose - Surprising because the names have such different 'styles'... I can't really see the connection as siblings, except that Marco is ultra-masculine and Sierra-Rose is ultra-feminine
Sibylla Amaryllis Seymour - A mouthful
Makala, Anna, Georgia, Clara, Siska Adelaide - 3 classics sandwiched between 2 names I am uncertain how to pronounce
Soraya Madison - Flashy, I like it
Saba, Stella Pasqualina - Gorgeous, the only sibset here I really love. The baby girl's combo is such a fresh take on Stella, which I thought I was over about six years ago.
Felix, Rosie, Sukie Isla Sylvia - I imagine these sibs with huge blue eyes, rosy cheeks, and hipster parents. The baby's combo is surprising, since Sukie Isla is so blithe and Sylvia is so Sylvia Plath!
Summer Juanita - So funky it's fresh
Susanna Erin - Erin was my favorite girls' name in about 1999 and I rarely like it anymore, but this is cute.
Sasha Christopher - Dashing
Ellen, Stirling Alexander - Distinguished
Sydney Alexander - Nice and fancy, especially if he goes by Syd. Tell me (if you are from Australia), is Sydney much used as a name, for boys or girls, in Australia? I know the name isn't in the top 100 on the Australian popularity list on Btn. Is the considered a bit much? Although I know Rachel Griffiths has a daughter called Adelaide, named in honor of the city or just as a general Australian tribute.

Yes, I'm from Australia. Sydney certainly isn't as common here as it is in the US. I think it's considered to be quite tacky and a little too sentimental. When you think of Sydney, you think of the city, whereas Adelaide you don't automatically get that association. Maybe not for everyone, but probably the majority of people. But it's nice to see Sydney on a boy instead of a girl for change - that's quite rare here & in the US.
