[Opinions] Names from today’s paper

Here is a Sib set from today’s paper

Raithin boy
Caelen boy
Alyssa girl

And boy/girl twins from a tv show I was watching
Rebecca Orielle Emily Martha
Philip/Philippe Michael Addison Sorely

The grandfather’s name was Philippe but it’s never made clear if the child’s name is Philippe or Philip. The only time it is pronounced it sounds like Philip.

WDYT?

Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my review
Miss steaks Eye kin knot sea.

Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.

Alyssa and Caelen are alright.

My first associations with Raithin are Raytheon and "rail thin" "wraith", but I guess IRL it'd just sound to me like Nathan or Dathan or he'd be Rai which seems fine. Unless I'm pronouncing it wrong and the Rai is actually Ry...

Philip (or Philippe "Philip") and Rebecca are nice names. I don't like the middle names, but they're not terrible, assuming Sorely is a family surname.

Gosh.

In the first set, Alyssa got lucky. In the second, presumably the parents decided they'd had enough children, and used up all the names they liked rather than waste them! I like Rebecca, Emily, Philip and Michael. Sorely is astonishing.

My kids have three names each, but four is one too many.

I like Alyssa and especially Caelan, but I'm not sure about Raithin.
Rebecca Emily Martha would've sounded better without Orielle in my opinion.
Phillip's name could do without Sorely. It's too identical to the word sorely in order for me to like it.
