[Opinions] Re: If I had twins right now.......

"freakishly boring"?
Isn't that an oxymoron?
Besides - both Sofia and Elizabeth are currently more popular than Ella and Marie... Ella is a wonderful alternative to the uber popular Emma.

No, I don't think so.
Ella is trendy, not so much popular. It's overused, and is appearing on zillions of message boards. Sofia, while popular, has been popular for a few years. It is trendy, but hasn't appeared out of thin air. Elizabeth is a classic that has been popular for decades. Marie isn't popular at all as a first name, but is extremely popular (along with Grace, Rose, Lynn, and Anne) as a middle name.
I, and most other people, find that both Ella and Emma are horribly overused. This doesn't make them bad names. They're perfectly nice names.
What really gets me about Ella is that it's nicknamey. Due to a brain splat, I didn't mention that in my post *headsmack*.
