Ardina Strüwer is a Swedish author, journalist and photographer of Swedish, Dutch and Indonesian heritage. I found out that her full name is Ardina Celeste Barbara Thérése Singoalla Marisol Louise! Isn't that quite awesome?(http://www.behindthename.com/name/singoalla/submitted)Does the sea exist
Because of our longing?My PNL

WAY too much of a mouthful.1 or 2 middle names are fine. More than 2 is a overkill. Also, it is just pretenious as f*** Her name looks and sounds more like one is saying separate individuals.
It's ridiculous

I'm JealousLove this; I'm jealous! If I amend my own, I will not only add a second middle, Elizabeth, I'll also need to add an additional hyphenated name--little short of a unique phrase.

I haven't read "Singoalla". Nowadays it's seen as a bit dated and not very readable. It's not even very well known nowadays, I think most people associate Singoalla with a kind of cookies with jam filling (the chocolate version is called Ballerina, btw).
Singoalla has never become a common name in Sweden, according to a Swedish statistic site there are fewer than 50 Singoalla here. I think it has mostly been used by Swedish Romas and Travellers. I don't know if Viktor Rydberg made it up from the word zingaro (the old Swedish word was zigenare, nowadays you say romer) or if it was used earlier.
