[Opinions] births and obits
Two of my coworkers gave birth in the past week.
Josephine Grace- I believe her big sister's name is Morgan, so not a great sibset if I'm remembering it correctly. The name itself is kinda boring.
Gabriel Irving- I'm surprised by this name. I never expected to see Irving usedand the obits- just the interesting names/ combos
Veronica Philomena
Fred Kingsley
Ruth Annabel
Alvina
Gordis (f)
Germaine Florence
Violet- okay, this one stuck out because we were just talking about the name, and it was in 2 on the same day.
LeMeryl (f)
Elnora Arlene
Alyce
Leokadia, nn Lydia
Hildegard- feels too medieval for modern use somehow.
Mayford Marvin
Ione- another one found twice in a month
Carol Viola
Betty nn Maxine- no mn or initial mentioned, so how did she get the nn?

Lol Betty nn Maxine! :) Bet there's a good story there.I like Kingsley - especially in the middle where you don't get the somewhat pretentious nickname King. Interestingly, I once considered the combo Morgan Josephine. I like both names, plus I'd use the nickname Mojo.Don't love Leokadia, but good use of Lydia as a nickname.

Josephine is criminally underused these days. Your coworkers have some good taste.
