Ok so Im going to be an uncle from my wife's side for the first time right now. We are all South African and we live in SA. The mother is my wife's sister and the dad is Afrikaans so decided an Afrikaans name for the baby boy. They shortened the list down to Morne(Mor-nay) Ettienne(Et-tee-enn). The last name is De Villiers.
Morne Ettienne De Villiers
So do you like the name?
And what do you think of it?
Thanks in advance to everyone who answers this question.

Honestly, Morne sounds like "mourning" to me... I like Ettienne Morne better anyways.. :) Ettienne sounds so... proper, cute...

I don't care for Morne (it reminds me of an eel), but I love Etienne (prefer this spelling).

I am not real thrilled with that name. I couldn't pronounce it until you spelled it out.
