I get being ~creative with names, but that name is a sin.

Meh. It's not to my tastes either, but it's not offensive (like little Aryan Nation _____ a few years back) and 99% of people will just know her as Della Richards.

Yay!

Hopefully, one day this will become so common that it's not even newsworthy.

Makes perfect sense to me.
Also, I like this: Before Della was conceived, the three started creating a written contract, outlining how their family would work.

The contract shows foresight. Good move.

I'm comfortable with the thought of three parents. Though I love them both, my step-mother raised me just as much as my biological mother did. That's obviously a bit of a different situation though, since my parents are separated...

This is an interesting precedent! And I hope it doesn't cause trouble for them down the way by ignorant bureaucrats. Lord knows there's plenty of those...

That child is gonna carry a pretty badass name through life.

Also, OP, your icon ahhh! I haven't thought of Ken-ohki and Ryo-ohki is a hundred years! :D
