Indio Falconer should just be Inigo or Indigo
Exton Elias wouldve been better off as just Elias
Avri Roel isn't that bad, but Avri Noelle sounds prettier.

They’re all bizarre but it could have been worse. Stephen Fry has an anecdote where he suggested the name “Uppy” to him.

Stephen Fry is the last person who should imply that other people are uppity. Downey's modern more trendy style does seem like it would be the opposite of Fry, who seems more classically pretentious. I am really curious now about what Fry would name a child if he had one of his own.

Be didn’t say “uppity”, he said “Uppy”. It’s a pun based on his last name.

Is Avri a girl or boy?

The information I have says girl.

They might not be my style, but they do seem thought out. All three names incorporate sounds, styles that are on trend right now, but the names themselves are unusual. All first names are 5 to 4 letters and are easy to sound out and have intuitive spellings. The names are modern and somewhat unique without being weird. I don't care for Exton (it sounds like a school), but I really like Avri. I like the middle names.

Foolish and forgettable.

I would change Indio to Indigo, Exton…anything else, and Avri to Avril. In short: I strongly dislike all of them.
