So many models have these strange names; a couple of my faves are Chrystelle Saint-Louis Augustin [ friggin WOW! ] and I think the name Leoni van Amstel is pretty sexy too.
I don't think I'll ever be able to get the hang of Anna-Maria Urajevskaya though!
Also, Agyness always make me think of 'ugliness' (even though she is far from ugly!); and Masha always makes me think of mash potatoe.
Share your favourite names and some strange ones too.
One of my favourites is Querelle Jansen. Her name is like no other models'. Although it is not her real name, it is what she uses for modeling. As far as I know there's no other model named straight out of a book/movie or a model who's name defines her look and character so perfectly. It works for her entire persona and it really helps her to be one of a kind.
I've always thought Anne-Marie Van Dijk was a beautiful sounding name too.

I agree. Just her first name alone, Chrystelle, is gorgeous. And she herself is an exotic stunner.
I love the sound of the names Emina Cunmulaj and Isabeli Fontana.
I also like the names Alessandra Ambrosio, Iselin Steiro, Maria Dvirnik, Morgane Dubled, and Drielle Valleretto(sp?).
But with most models, I simply like their first names: Anja, Daria, Irina, Sasha, etc.
The first time I saw the name "Iekeliene", thought that it was a variant of the name Jackeline (or Jacqueline).
I originally thought that it was pronounced "Yeh-Keh-Li'en". I thought, "Sounds like a nice name".
But it's actually pronounced something like "Eee-keh-Lee-Nee". Yuk!
I always liked Iekeliene's name too
I also love Coco Rocha - it's sounds so nice, and Freja Beha Erichsen - her first name is beautiful.
I don't like Sasha's last name and Inguna Butane - don't know why...
I like Sasha's last name because the first part of it means Beer in Serbian and the rest has something to do with getting high
And I agree about Freja!
