Fun! Here are my thoughts:
Brayden Michael-Ugh. Brayden is getting really annoying.
Owen Thomas-That's handsome.
Cody Alexander (Austin, Brycen, Courtney)-I like the Alexander part. I also like Austin, but the rest are nms.
James Carmine-James is good.
Avery Anne (Matthew)-I really can't get into Avery fora girl. Ava Anne would have been a nice match here. I love Matthew.
Kaden Steven (Brent, Connor, Riley)-Seriously. That's quite enough of Kaden. I'd like Conor & Reilly w/these spellings.
Mary Isabelle (Emily)-Meh, that's alright. Mary is nms, but Isabelle is pretty. Emily is cute.
Jackson John and Grace Marie (Harlen)-Wow, those sure are a lot more common then Harlen. Harlen is not too attractive though, imo. I don't mind Grace Marie, but Jackson is getting so old.
Riley Victoria-Riley is a boy name. At least she has a nic feminine mn to fall back on.
Hana Nicole (Emma Nicole, Leah Nicole)-I like this sister group, but Hannah would have been perfectly acceptable. Although, I think that if I remember correctly Hana is more wildey accepted in Canada, right? They could have been a bit more creative on the mns.
Jade Riordan - girl (Tyler)-I ilke Tyler. Jade is nms, & Riordan is a fabulous boy name.
Abigail Paige-I don't mind Abigail.
Caleigh Ariel (Tarah)-Callie Ariel would have been darling. Tarah is nms.
Eli Zev-Ooh, that's cool.
Megan Emma-Meh. I like Emma.
Elizabeth Marie-I love that.
Derek Douglas (Amy, Kaitlin)-Very cute. Oh, how I wish that were Caitlin instead. This is still a nicely paired sib set.
Elle Siena-That's gorgeous.
Lauren Paige (Trent)-NMS. I like Trent.
Lucas Alexander-I love that one.
Henry Benjamin (Sarah, Elizabeth)-I love that! Sarah & Elizabeth are perfect here too.
Easton Bennett-That's sort of interesting. I like Bennett a lot.
Vivian Irene (Mason, Zwicker, Jessica)-Hm. That's nms, but it's a nice interesting combination. Mason is cute, & Jessica isn't awful. What the heck is Zwicker?
Samuel Joseph-That's fine.
Zachary Douglas (Jeremy, Ryan, Nicholas)-Those work.
Christienne-Marie (Julian)-That's nms, yet I'm in love w/Julian.
Kennedy Ann-Blah.
Lucas Redmond (Nicholas)-I love Lucas. Nicholas is nice too.
Jessica Isabella (Alex)-That's okay. I like Alex.
Spencer Robert (Cassandra)-That's adorable, & I really like it w/Cassandra.
Matthew James (Timothy)-I love that, & Timothy is also darling.
Hannah Micheline Hope (Jessica)-Hannah Hope would have been better w/out the tire brand in the mn. What's w/all of the Jessicas?
Hanna Bella (Oliver, Luke)-I'd really like Hannah Belle, but this isn't bad. Oliver & Luke are great.
Jenna Leah-I like the Leah part.
Brianna Grace (Matthew, Gabriel)-That's okay. I love Matthew & Gabriel.
Nathan Christopher-That's nice.
Noah Max-That's nice.
Grace Isabel-Hm, that's okay. I really like Isabel spelled this way.
Brandon Ryan-I love Brandon. This doesn't flow that well though.
Madison Faith-Yuck.
Noa Joelle (Gabriel)-I would totally assume that these were brothers by just hearing them. Noa is a legit girl spelling, but it's nms.
Kevin Russell (Jamie Lynn)-Those are okay. A tad 70s.
Noa Meredith (Lucas)-Two?
Ashley Summer-I like Summer, but can't get into Ashley.
Thanks for sharing!
Brayden Michael -- Braden Michael would be fine, but the Y makes it seem so much trendier (and even MORE similar to all the Ayden, Cayden, Jayden misspellings, so not any less common, as I'm sure the parents were thinking)
Owen Thomas -- that's a really nice combo
Cody Alexander (Austin, Brycen, Courtney) -- a bit dated, but goes well with sibs (very Western feel). Really wish Brycen were spelled Bryson, however. Come on. ;)
James Carmine -- nothing dazzling, but fine
Avery Anne (Matthew) -- ROFL sounds like ovarian to me!
Kaden Steven (Brent, Connor, Riley) -- why the K?? His brothers are Brynt, Konner and Rylee! The double "N-dings" aren't great either
Mary Isabelle (Emily) -- they're sweet together
Jackson John and Grace Marie (Harlen) -- does it bug anyone else that Jackson literally means "son of Jack" (and therefore, son of JOHN), and his mn is, in fact, John?? Ugh! At least look it up! Grace Marie is just a double-filler. How did Harlen end up with such a less common name (odd spelling, still, but I'm assuming family surname)?
Riley Victoria -- this is one that always seems off to me. No matter how many times I see it, I wonder why they'd give their little boy such a girly mn.
Hana Nicole (Emma Nicole, Leah Nicole) -- I might actually like this spelling/pronunciation/origin if they weren't using it as a way to cut Hanna(h) down to four letters like Emma NICOLE and Leah NICOLE! And the number of letters thing isn't an overly-obvious pattern I generally mind at all ... it's when the names are tweaked just to keep it going (like if I wanted to name another girl Emily but spelled it Emmalee to stretch it to seven letters ROFL). Very UNclassy. And I won't even touch the NicoleNicoleNicole thing.
Jade Riordan - girl (Tyler) -- Jade is too trendy for me, and I've honestly NEVER seen Riordan for a girl (though I love the name itself)
Abigail Paige -- well I love Abigail ... Paige is nms
Caleigh Ariel (Tarah) -- nms, and the elaborate -leigh ending is so overdone
Eli Zev -- that's pretty cool, though I'd have liked a longer form of Eli with such a short mn
Megan Emma -- runs together for me ... Mega-Nemma or something
Elizabeth Marie -- a safe choice, though I wouldn't have paired the two
Derek Douglas (Amy, Kaitlin) -- don't like those double-Ds
Elle Siena -- this just sounds like El Sienna, as in the actually color sienna. ROFL Perhaps not the most well-thought-out pairing
Lauren Paige (Trent) -- Lauren is lovely, but I still don't like Paige ;)
Lucas Alexander -- the Alex- names are everywhere, but I like Lucas
Henry Benjamin (Sarah, Elizabeth) -- wouldn't have paired these, what with the Hen-/Ben- beginning sounds and all, but Sarah, Elizabeth and Henry make a wonderful sib set
Easton Bennett -- hehe I think there's an Easton Bennett Toyota in the city I was born ;)
Vivian Irene (Mason, Zwicker, Jessica) -- Vivian Irene is wonderful! As to the rest, however ... Mason is uber-trendy, Jessica is very dated, and Zwicker is -- I don't know WHAT Zwicker is, but I'm really hoping his mn or ln isn't Man. ROFL
Samuel Joseph -- nice
Zachary Douglas (Jeremy, Ryan, Nicholas) -- Nicholas and Zachary seem to go hand-in-hand. I think uncreative types think the obvious nns Nick and Zack are just wonderful for some reason (I'd have avoided using one with the other for that very reason, however LOL)
Christienne-Marie (Julian) -- that's quite a first name. Love Julian
Kennedy Ann -- the names are fine, but I can't help hearing Kenna Deanne
Lucas Redmond (Nicholas) -- oooh, now I love Lucas Redmond! Assuming, of course, they don't shorten them to Nick and Luc/Luke (see above LOL)
Jessica Isabella (Alex) -- dated, and too many similar sounds in Jessica and Isabella for me
Spencer Robert (Cassandra) -- love Spencer and Cassandra
Matthew James (Timothy) -- very "books of the Bible"
Hannah Micheline Hope (Jessica) -- Hannah is nice, though popular in my area. And it seems Jessica is in Ontario ... what's up with that?! ;)
Hanna Bella (Oliver, Luke) -- ugh. I know a Mia Bella. Bella is nms to begin with, but then to make it basically cutesy/rhymey with the fn is just too corny. If you like Annabella, name her Annabella already. Luke and Oliver are nice brother names.
Jenna Leah -- sounds like someone stumbling over the word "gently"
Brianna Grace (Matthew, Gabriel) -- I still can't believe how popular Brianna and it's variants are! I grew up with quite a few, so it seems as dated as Kelly, Amy, Jessica, Nicole, etc. to me. Also, it doesn't seem to go at all with Matthew and Gabriel.
Nathan Christopher -- nice
Noah Max -- Popular/trendy/overdone
Grace Isabel -- a bit too Ssssss-ey, and I don't think I could ever use Isabel in the mn spot ... ends up sounding too much like a statement. "Grace is a bell."
Brandon Ryan -- dislike the -on/-an endings
Madison Faith -- eh
Noa Joelle (Gabriel) -- I don't like Noa(h) for either gender at this point. It just screams "I'm very religious but didn't want to use Jacob (or already have)" LOL
Kevin Russell (Jamie Lynn) -- that's kind of cool. I don't hear Russell much anymore. Jamie Lynn is much too backwoods/Britney Spears for me.
Noa Meredith (Lucas) -- another one?? That's unexpected. Are there really that many little girls named Noa in your area, or is this just a fluke? Love Meredith for the mn.
Ashley Summer -- OMG ... that's very 90s exotic dancer. WAIT! Ashley Summer IS an adult film star (and a popular one at that, from all the crap that came up when I did a quick search ... it was too obvious not to check LOL). I wonder if these parents got offended by any such "stipper" comments prior to naming her, and never bothered to look it up.
