Rio is one of those names I did not like the first time I heard it, but it is really growing on me. It is simple and has an edge that I like.

Here are my thoughts on the rest:
Brielle(Brie) - this is nice
Ellison Oak (Ellie) - there are a lot of Ellie's so be ready if this is what you chose, Capri - Capri pants was my first thought. Interestingly I have known 2 Khaki's in my life and that name also makes me think of pants :-)
Cami - cute, but I like it more as a nn
Clara - I love this name
Margaret(Grammy) - is this name after your Grammy or you want the nn to be Grammy?
Devyn - I really dislike this spelling, stick with Devon
Dezi - ehh...nms

Boys:
Macaulay(Mac) - I really like the nn Mac, but EVERYONE will think of the child actor with this name. What about Cormac, nn Mac?
Creed - ok
Asher - I love this name! It is on my list too
Nathaniel(Nate) - I like Nate

good luck,
Brooke

Yes Margaret is after my grammy, she passed away the week I got pregy. Ever since I told my 2 year old we were gonna have another bebe she has been naming it nothing but Margaret. The crazy thing is she didnt nkow her by Margaret she called her Gram. I am not overly struck on the name but it has so much meaning behind it.

Margot, Marguerita, Rita, Greta, Gretel, Gretchen, Marjorie, Margie, Maggie, Madge, May, Maisie, Daisy, Maidie, Meg, Mog, and Peggy.

Good luck,
