I accidentally posted my names on the other BN:BTT board and they got butchered! I am going to put all eight of them on here, tell me what you think...we don't want to rearrange names or anything...I just want to know how they sound!!! I have them listed in the order in which we would prefer to use them...
My name is Kayla Dawn (Everyone calls me Kate) DH is Daniel Ray (Ray happens to be my late father's first name and last name ((Raymond Ray)) and of course my maiden name!) Our last name is Laughlin...
Girls...
1.) Ryleigh Kaye- The first name DH and I LOVED! Kaye- the mn of my paternal grandmother who passed away from Breast Cancer in 1994
2.) Karlee Jane- Kar-came my mother's name Karla, Lee is my BIL middle name and Jane is my maternal grandmother's mn... realize that it is dreadfully popular but it's got meaning!!!
3.) Addison Rebecca- This fn is classic and sophisticated and we love it! MN is my mil name.
4.) Emma Danielle- Emma...this is a last choice name...Danielle is the feminine form of Daniel and it worked with Emma!
Boys...
1.) Kaden Daniel- Basically we picked this name out when we were still in high school, we love Kaden because it's the Ka in my name and Den kinda sounds like the Dan in his! dorky I know! and of course Daniel came from the obvious source!
2.) Landan Ray- Heard it and loved it! Ray was used for the above mentioned reasons
3.) Leland Thomas- Same goes here! Thomas was my father's mn
4.) Austin Michael- once again last choice! Michael is my fil mn!

If you and your dh love the names, that's what really counts.
Of your boy names, I really love Landan Ray and Leland Thomas. (But I'd spell Landon the traditional way.)
Your girl names are not my style, but that doesn't matter. :) My favorite though is Emma Danielle.
Not all your names are my style, but I do love most of them, and I wanted to ditto what the PP said about choosing names with meanings. It's obvious you put a lot of thought into your picks, and will be able to explain to your kids someday exactly why you chose their names. I think that's wonderful.
Good luck!
Girls...
1.) Ryleigh Kaye- NMS love the significance to you but I really really dislike the name Riley no matter what the spelling!
2.) Karlee Jane- Personal FAVE!! Love the meaning, Love Karlee spelled this way, I know it isn't the "correct" spelling but I LOVE IT.
3.) Addison Rebecca- This name doesn't Flow and Addison doesn't fit your naming style.
4.) Emma Danielle- I like this as my 2nd Fave. I know Emma is super popular, but I like the flow.
Boys...
1.) Kaden Daniel- I am not a fan of the aiden ending so this would be my last choice
2.) Landan Ray- OK, not a fan
3.) Leland Thomas- Don't like Leland at all, just nms.
4.) Austin Michael- Again I like your last choice. I love Austin, not sure about Michael, but I could live with it.
I'm not fond of some of the spellings, but I do like Austin Michael.
AJ, enjoying life with C.
