I love Edith Vivian Patricia. Of course, I'll love any combo that uses Patricia. Their sons have great names as well. Dashiell John and Ignatius Martin stand out most of the three. Violet and Knox is fine. I'm not a huge fan of Moon or Blue as names. William Wolf is awesome.And I was really into Rhodes... Now it is a celebrity name and just ugh. I'm actually sort of sad. It's a nice name though.

I like Edith, Vivian, Patricia, Martin, Roman, Robert, John, Violet, and Emilio.Emilio is an interesting choice for a MN. I like that they used a Portuguese name. (It might look strange with the surname, but Linda Perry is actually Portuguese-American - her dad's family is from Portugal and her mom's from Brazil. Her family's surname was originally Pereira. Some Portuguese-American families with the last name Pereira changed it to Perry.)

Edith Vivian Patricia - I'd totally want to be named that if I were a baby today. Nice.I like Violet, but Knox is icky. Violet Moon is too much kitsch for me.Why Rhodes in the first spot and not Emilio? sigh.

I like the names Edith, John, Violet and William. For the parents names I like Sarah and Steve.

The Upton children all have great names. Also, Violet and Knox is a cute twinset. Knox continues to grow on me more & more.

I have to say, I like half of the Blanchett-Upton crews' names. Love Roman and Dashiell, and really dislike Edith and Ignatius. As for middle names, like Vivian, don't really like the rest. Shahi-Howeys:
Violet Moon is cute. Like Blue and Wolf, but not Knox, and William is so boring. I like Will, though. Gilbert-Perrys:Rhodes makes me think of Rhodes brand rolls, but it could be worse as far as celebrity names. Sort of reminiscent of Ryder and occupation names. Like...Sawyer. I like Sawyer a lot, but only on boys. I really dislike Sawyer, Sailor, Sloan, etc. on girls. Just can't warm up to them. Levi is okay, but Hank is wretched. I will say that the sibset goes together well. American actress Sara Gilbert and wife, musician Linda Perry welcomed son Rhodes Emilio Gilbert Perry. He joins half-sister Sawyer, 7½, and half-brother Levi Hank, 10.
