Adora BatBrat and her synth kids
There is a Swedish woman whose real name is Ann-Sophie, but she calls herself Adora BatBrat. She has fangs (!), looks a bit like a mix between Emilie Autumn and a Lolita girl and loves synth. Thousands of people follow her on You Tube. She and her husband have three kids all named after synthesizers:Synthia
Fairlight (girl)
and TeeBee (boy)Does the sea exist
Because of our longing?

Its kitschy to me. Its like a Star Wars fan naming their kids Leia, Han, and Darth.

She shows up on my tumblr dash a lot lol. I like Adora and Fairlight, but I prefer Fairlight as a middle name. Or a horse name maybe. I don't like Synthia- it looks good but it sounds like Cynthia which I don't like at all. TeeBee= nope. Only as a nickname.

P.S.!There are 40 women in Sweden called Adora, 26 of them use it as their first name.
There are 14 women in Sweden called Synthia, 7 of them use it as their first name.
There are 2 women in Sweden called Fairlight, Adora's daughter is the only one who use it as her first name.
And TeeBee is the only TeeBee in Sweden!Tuberculosis, BTW, is tuberkulos in Swedish and it's shortened TBC.

They are a little bit gimmicky for my taste. I would like them more if you had not told me she calls herself BatBrat. That's somewhere between icky and stupid - I would even have thought so was when I was 14.I like Cynthia though and don't mind the respelling. Fairlight's a GP of mine (for a girl though).
I'd think TeeBee would be unfortunate because of tuberculosis being known as TB. Tuberculosis isn't cool. They should have named him Roland.

Synthia is okay, I guess. It sounds like Cynthia at least. Fairlight is adorable. A bit cutesy for a first name.TeeBee just makes me think if TB—as in tuberculosis.

The name Adora is awful. It reminds me of Adora Belle Dearheart from Discworld, and I like her, but it's still just awful.
Synthia is okay. At least it sounds normal when you say it.
Fairlight is too hippy-dippy for my taste but it's not the most awful name out there.
TeeBee is atrocious.
