HelpRe: family names...
in reply to a message by Joiya
Please tell me that Klimberly is a typo. Kimberly is fine.
It looks like you have a bunch of Italian names there. I wouldn't rule any of them out, but I have the feeling that some of them could be too foreign in some areas, like mine which doesn't have an Italian-American population. But I also wish that my Honduran students weren't named Edwin, Alex, Wendy and Sharon. They should be Nayeli, Cuauhtemoc, etc.
Dalton is fine. I know a boy named Daltyn, and I've never heard anything negative about it.
Samanthe, Trishy, TanTan and Junior seem more like nns than given names to me.

Klimberly is right. She is my niece. Klimberly is her "english" name. Her Chinese name is YingYin. Her mom is Filipina (like my husband) but lives in Malaysia with her husband from China. Their other son is Junior (ChanChin). Both names are what they go by in real life.
Though Klimberly usually just goes by Klim.
The names that seem like nicknames to you are my neices and nephews in the Philippines, and I agree. A little hard to get used to.
