[Opinions] Re: Birth announcements of big families
Holy spellcheck, Batman! I'm glad I don't live where these parents live. I could say a lot - Remmingtin springs to mind - but just one will have to do. Devrah. I like Devorah; never met one, but I imagine it would sound like deVORa, unlike Deborah which sounds like DEBorah in English and Debra which sounds like DEBra. Devrah must sound like DEVrah, so is Devorah DEVorah or deVORa?The sibset I feel most sorry for is Jarixzey Ivonne, sister to Xzavior, Julian, Xzaydin, Avizael and Aviel. On the evidence of Xzavior, I assume that the xz names will all sound like Ekszaydin and Jariekszey. Are the last two twins, I wonder? And how does Julian feel about his place in this family - relieved or rejected?And I can't leave without giving Pruyeh a mention. I imagine a delivery-room conversation: 'Let's name her Prue.' 'Prue - yeah!'
