I truly dislike anglicized names for a child born in a Spanish speaking country. Like Ashley Díaz or Paul Marquéz, for example. It's like the name doesn't go at all with the background, IMO.

Amber and Jade are actual names (as well as Hunter) but... coal? What the fuck? Do they hate the kid or something?

Nah, Gallo says they are the 'Stone' family.

He has a cousin that named her kids after vehicles or related car stuff: Cooper, Harley and Kia.
