I'll sure try! Cameron Thomas has a bit of a modern feel to it, but still very classic and masculine. Is this generally the type of names that attract you? Give me some idea of family names you may want to use, and I'll definitely try to name your baby! What fun!

Thanks for the kudos on the name. It is a little frillier than the other names I have picked out, but I really love it. Plus, it has the added benefit of relating to my family, which is nice.

I can't wait to hear back from you so I can get started on the naming!

I love both names, and I don't think it's too long...but...they don't seem to "flow" as well together as other names could and do. On the other hand, there's no law saying that a name is "better" if it flows. If you're not looking for something "flowy", then this is perfect. :-) I think it's b/c the following sounds: "Gen", "Cord", and even the "v"s in "Genevieve" are all very strong. But again, if that's the look and feel you're going for, it's perfect. :-) I actually like it, even though I typically go for more "flowy" names.

The length doesn't bother me but the names just don't flow, for me.

Thanks. I've kind of given up on it. I love the name, but it doesn't really flow with many of the other names that I love. And those names are more important to me.

Think me up a good name to go in front of Cordelia! Of the two, it's the name I'd rather use.

Are you sure you don't want it as a fn?

I think Genevieve Cordelia is beautiful, not too long at all. I love long names actually. I am really into Cordelia lately, it is so beautiful and timeless yet has a fresh feel to it.
