Wow, what a bunch of lovely names!
Valeria Venora Lova Ida Elly
Her sisters are called Vyvyan Valeska Silke Gwendolyn Anneliese and Vanadis Viveka Sophia Traudl Ulrike - wow, what a mouthful! But most of the names are lovely. I love Valeria, Lova, Valeska, Silke (although it actually means silk in Swedish), Gwendolyn and Sophia. The only name I don't like at all is Traudl.
Ida Spring - sweet
Elli - Erna Althea Berenika - I like Althena and Berenika, but Athena Berenike would be sweeter
Polixeni - cool
Nox
Siblings: Neo and Noa - I don't like any of them. Tacky
Medb Ursula Ravenna - coooool...
April Snow - although snow in April isn't exactly nice, I can't help liking this!
Aurelia Narzissa Iuliana - *swoons*
Anna Marla Salome Fe - Fe! I love that!
Yael Noemi Ophira - I like Yael
Tiberius Maximus - jeez...they want him to be an emperor, or what?
Estibaliz Laetitia - I like it. I've never heard Estibaliz
Kiara Melusine - sweet, although I would prefer Kyra Melisande
Medea Amancaya Helena Mae - Mae looks misplaced, but I like the rest
Flynn Samuel Peewee - Flynn Samuel is not bad, but Peewee, what the heck IS that!?
Leonas Ludwig - cute
Célandine - aww, gorgeous
Alina Cataleya - would be cute if Cataleya didn't make me think of cathalepsis
Engel Gratia Aurelia - maybe a bit too religious, but I can't help liking it
Scolastica Chantal - horrible combo of horrible names
Gilda Gwenneth - ooh, Gilda!
Satine Elise - sweet
Eugenie Leokadia
Edward Cullen - Edward Cullen!? Jeez, they do like Twilight!
Melisande Lilly - Christin - I would love it if it were Lily Christine Melisande

Fantastic selection! Some really interesting names in there. Peewee & Edward Cullen made me laugh.
Estíbaliz is Basque. There's a village with a 12th-century church dedicated to the BVM: http://www.spain.info/en/conoce/monumentos/alava/iglesia_de_santa_maria_de_estibaliz.html
and a well-known singer who's been around since the 70s: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Est%C3%ADbaliz_Uranga
Most common meaning given (in English and Spanish anyway) seems to be 'sweet like honey'. No idea if this is accurate.
Amancaya: apparently "The word 'amancaya' is the native Indian name of a flower of the Andes' - spotted on a site selling Argentinian wine, sounds plausible.

Vyvyan Valeska Silke Gwendolyn Anneliese, Vanadis Viveka Sophia Traudl Ulrike and Valeria Venora Lova Ida Elly are awesome. I especially like Vyvyan, Silke, Gwendolyn, Vanadis (big GP), Sophia and Valeria.

ETA: Found the blog. Now I feel like creating a Swedish equivalent. Too bad we don't have that trend with car stickers, or whatever they are.

Yeah, those baby name stickers on cars seem to be a very German/Austrian thing. I've never seen them anywhere else so far. (Then again, I haven't been to Denmark in a while. Maybe there...? ;-) )
Honestly, though, they are a great, name nerd-ish pastime on long car rides. Or when you get stuck in traffic. Again. (Not to mention they are the reason I found out that my mom is a name nerd in disguise :P )
I'd just wish they'd drop this Disney-ish font already; it can be hard to decipher at times :P
Ah, while you are here, I have a question:
Is Bjarka actually used in Scandinavia (or at least in Sweden)?

Hmm, I was in Copenhagen in July, didn't see any. I hope they'll come here ... :) Signs like these: http://tinyurl.com/btaypbu were very popular a few years ago, it was wonderful. But they are very rare now. :(
There are only 4 Bjarka in Sweden, definitely not a Swedish name. Seems very Icelandic to me - I know a Bjarki whose mother is from Iceland.

I think you still see the stroller signs fairly often. My heart jumped with joy when I saw a little Isolde, but I cringe every time the sign says Kevin or Nova.
