[Opinions] Celeb BA
Finnish top model Suvi Riggs (née Koponen) and husband Tyler Riggs welcomed their second daughter: Raelyn joins big sister Juniper.I myself don't like Raelyn at all and don't think it matches well with Juniper. I know that both of these names have raised in the US chart in recent years, but Raelyn still seems dated compared to Juniper.What do you think?

I'd like this name more if it were Rae Lynn, two names, equally emphasized. Otherwise it starts to become "railin'." Raelyn against the Man.I don't think it seems dated, exactly. The only Raelyn(n?) I've met is about 12 now, and it seemed to me to be trendy for her age, but I thought it was starting to get passe until I saw the popularity chart.At least it's not Braelyn.I don't like Juniper. It seems to be trying so hard to be perky. It's like a doggie name. There's a litter of largish-breed puppies that were born in my imagination just now. They were each adopted by city people who liked how the breed looked but didn't understand the need to train or exercise them properly, and when they are grown, they'll wear a pinch collar, jump up on people, bark a lot, and attack other dogs.
Their names are:
Riley, Juniper, Piper, Poppy, Kinsley, Maverick, Finn, and Tucker.

I agree, about the dogs. They probably don't get outside enough. Poor dogs.

Hi Remora !!!!I agree with you.
Raelyn is totally out of place here.I like the name Suvi and Juniper as well.
Tyler is not my cup of tea..
..But Raelyn is horrible imo.As Juniper is an English name I would looking for a Finnish nsme as both parents have their own culture.Or if they want another English name at least one with a clear meaning.Or an international name: Suvi's MN is Maria and it would be also honouring...But why RAELYN?? TTAnyway congratulation to them !!!!
