I feel the urge to comment. Some of these are just amazing. LOL
Birdie Faye - Birdie? Really? They could have at least named her Bridget or something normal, and called her Birdie if it was really that appealing. ;)
Tayleigh - inevitable, with all the Hailey, Kayleigh, Baileys of various spellings (the "Aidan" of the girl names).
Drayk - phonetically challenged parents try to spell the name Drake.
Vienna - a real name ... but also a real sausage.
KeMorriontae - Wow! Talk about mixing genres. They've got the added Ke- beginning (a la KeShawn and the like), the added -tae ending AND a completely made-up root name that sounds suspiciously similar to certain REAL names. How much would you bet he (assuming it is a he) ends up going by Morry/Maury or something? LOL
Osbaldo - this is either a foreign form or misspelling of Osvaldo/Oswald (either of which I like) ... OsBaldo, not so much.
Quanasia - too many different made-up parts again. They've got the Ke-/Qua- type beginning going into the N sound (so it sounds like a feminization of Quinn) AND the frilly -nasia ending popular in certain areas. Unfortunately, the whole thing together sounds like an allergy medication.
Aunah - Anna or Audra would have been good. This looks terrible. Note to expectant parents: if you want to make up a name, don't just misspell something that sounds almost exactly like an actual name. Just use the actual name.
Remy Corgan - Remy's a real name. I'd assume they were French (or French Canadian). I'm not familiar with Corgan, but it reminds me of Corgie.
Fox Allan - there's a Fox at my dd's school. His siblings are Raven and Jada (yeah, really). LOL
Dax - I like Dax ... it's a real name. And I love the similar Dexter.
Crue - looks like a typo of either Cruz or True. ;)
Dreggon Corona - they named their child Dragon. Spelling aside, this says Dragon. And Corona is nice and all, but with the popularity of the beverage it just kind of screams "That's how I got here." I'd expect siblings named Tequila and Hennessey. Of course, I'm not one to talk ... I love Cillian, and people immediately associated that with the beer as well. ;)
Those were interesting, to say the least. LOL Thanks for sharing.

AJ, enjoying life with C.
Oh my! This is not good at all! How would one even begin to pronounce this: KeMorriontae???
Out of the rest of the names, Rilen isn't too horrible, and Fox would be cute for a nickname, just not a full name.
Otherwise, none of these are my style at all!

With a name like that, he/she will probably end up going ON Maury!
Birdie Faye--I've heard of Birdie before. So it is a "real" name. A lot of older people have it. But I would definatly not name my kid that.
Tayleigh--I've heard it before, twice actually. I don't hate it but I wouldn't use it myself.
Drayk--Drake is such a nice name...why screw it up and spell it Drayk
Vienna--like Vienna Sausages? LOL
KeMorriontae--Oh. My. Gosh. What on earth is that. *eyeroll*
Osbaldo-^^see above^^ Reminds me of that disney movie Balto about the racing dog.
Quanasia--not even gonna touch that one...
Aunah--No clue how to even begin pronoucing this one.
Remy Corgan--Not as bad as the other.
Na--What on earth? Its a sylablle not a name.
Fox Allan--Compared with all the other this is so normal.
Rilen--another take on Riley I am assumig
Dax--see Remy
Crue--As in Crew?
Dreggon Corona--This is me is the worst of them all! Dreggon...like Dragon only DRE-gon and Corona like the beer. I hope his/her parts aren't really as dumb as they seem.
Where is your local hospital??? maybe the area would explain some of these....?

I think Birdie was just a natural progression of Bridie, basically a pet form of Bridget way back when. So a "real name" along the same lines as Babs, Dot, Fanny, Sissy and Tabby, all of which have, of course, been used as given names, but I'd strongly suggest Barbara, Dorothy, Frances, Cecilia and Tabitha (or some other formal name). ;)
And Jazz --
I don't doubt that we'd see KeMorriontae on Maury. Or perhaps we already have? LOL Sounds so familiar.
