Hmm... My aunt is Elizabeth. Brother is Eric. I've known about 25 Erins (so so so so popular where I'm from). I know of someone named Egypt. Elle, Ella of course.

And Ekika. She was the cousin of my neighbor once upon a time. She was so... exotic. lol. I couldn't tell what race she was at ALL, she sometimes spoke in different worldly accents, she was always moving through the states, and was generally just nuts. ee-KIKE-uh is how she pronounced her name.

I've known a few Q's. Quentin/Quentens. Mostly African American girls and boys with Q'letterletterletterletter names. Q is pretty popular here as a substitute for K, too. Then in college I knew a Quenishwaya whose pronunciation was not intuitive so everyone just called her 'Q'.

X: Xander and Xandria are all I can think of right now.

Y: Yvonne, Yessica--and basically all Spanish names that make the J a Y.
