Friends' babies

Two friends of mine recently gave birth to their second child. One had a boy, Dante Zephyr (big sister Petra) & the other, a girl: Jovie June (big sister Zoe).

I personally am not a fan of Dante, but Jovie June is just adorable!

I strongly dislike Dante, but Zephyr is quite cool. Jovie June is nice.

Petra and Dante are gutsy rebels. I wouldn't want to raise them! :)

Jovie June is really baby-ish sounding. Also, Zoe and Jovie are too similar souunding for me. June would be better, I think!

Jovie June feels so cutesy. Dante Zephyr is too pretentious, although I do love Dante.
I like Petra! Dante and Petra is a nice sibset. I'm not a Zoe fan (Zoë is my own middle name and it feels so generic and lame), but Zoe is okay with June (not Jovie, with which it sounds terrible).

Although neither is quite my style, I like both of them.

I'm not a fan of Dante either but I must admit the sibling set Petra and Dante is attractive. While I like Zoe the addition of Jovie is rather awful.

As for middles I like June and dislike Zephyr.
