Annual Goofy Name Roundup

Each year when school starts, I go down to the kindergarten on back-to-school night and jot down the bizarre names or spellings with which many parents choose to saddle their kids for life. Here's this year's crop:

Taryn
Kaden
Brinley
Hailey
Kaylee
Janae
Debany
Teanekuma
Taygen
Liora
Maika
Uijin
Loryn
Sione
Garreth

Caveat: It's possible that some of these are sane ethnic names with which I'm personally not familiar.
