I think Anas may be one of the ethnic names. I couldn't really hear the pronounciations - but I would assume it is pronounced A-nas (like the rapper NAS?).
Anas is an Arabic name, it means friendliness. I think you're right with the NAS pronunciation. I had to look it up, but it sounded Middle Eastern...but then you look at their last name, Luigi...so, who knows.
Luigi is the middle name. Which was the main reason I posted this name - I pictured Mario's little sidekick. Last name is of Arabic origin.
Do parents realize that their children have to go out into the real world and get jobs with these names?! In fact I asked my boss what he would have thought if my resume had said Bryttanee instead of Leslie. He looked at me as if I had 2 heads and asked if I was joking or if that was someone's real name.
Don't forget last nights 16 & pregnant. They named their son Kay'den
