Fun! Here are my thoughts:
GIRLS:
Esther Nicole-That's nms, but at least Ester is sort of interesting.
Ashleigh Silvana-That's nms.
Neave Bethany-I really like Neve or Niamh. Bethany is nms, but it's not awful.
Grace Elizabeth-That's fine. I love Elizabeth.
Martha Isla-I really like Isla. Martha is different, but nms.
Juliet Sophia-Oh, that's lovely.
Lara Grace-I do like Lara.
Daisy Elizabeth-How sweet.
Charlotte Molly-Nice.
Annette Riley-Odd combination. I like the nn possibilities of Annette.
Zara Elaine-That's kind of neat.
Catriona Grace-I like this authentic spelling.
Marie Abigail-Sweet.
Camilla Grace-I like Camilla.
Laura Ellie-That's fine.
Olivia Lily-I love that.
BOYS:
Scott Robert-I like Scott.
Rory Alexander-Aw, Rory is fun to see. It's a handsome mn as well.
William Stephen-I love that one.
Philip William-Ooh, very nice.
Christian Henry -I love the Henry part.
Charles Matthew-Nice.
Theo Cameron-That's alright.
Gregory Simon-I like that.
Oscar Devin-Cute.
Hunter Michael-I don't like Hunter.
Thomas James-Classic.
Robert Daniel-That's okay.
Parker Hal-I like Parker.
TWINS:
Lilian Sophia & Violet Isabella -Oh my, those are excellent.
Joseph Henry & Clifford James-I love Joseph Henry. Clifford is kind of goofy.
Frederick Tyler & Ethan Thomas-I really like Frederick.
Thanks for sharing.
Olivia Lily is quite a mouthful!

GIRLS:
Esther Nicole -- Esther's nice ... Nicole is dated
Ashleigh Silvana -- Ashleigh is dated, and the -leigh ending is bad. Silvana's interesting
Neave Bethany -- I would love this if it were Niamh or Naomh or even Anglicized to Neve, but I'm not sure what to make of Neave. Makes it look like they wanted an "American" spelling but didn't think Neve was clear enough.
Grace Elizabeth -- boring
Martha Isla -- Isla's beautiful, but doesn't work with Martha at all
Juliet Sophia -- ooh, Juliet is lovely
Lara Grace -- simply sweet
Daisy Elizabeth -- eh. Daisy still seems like a nn, although it is sweet. Doesn't flow into Elizabeth very well
Charlotte Molly -- Molly also seems like a nn, although I don't mind quite as much since it's the mn. I actually like Charlotte and Molly, but probably not together (Mary Charlotte, nn Molly, would be sweet)
Annette Riley -- seems like they wanted to name their dd after their aging great-aunt and 6-year-old nephew LOL An odd combo
Zara Elaine -- the vowel ending of Zara and beginning of Elaine aren't the easiest to say back-to-back, but other than that I like each name itself
Catriona Grace -- Catriona is beautiful!
Marie Abigail -- Abigail is beautiful (but Marie still sounds too "filler" for me, even as a fn)
Camilla Grace -- I prefer Camille, but this is nice too. Wouldn't use Grace
Laura Ellie -- back-to-back vowels again, and Ellie is a nn. Laura is sweet
Olivia Lily -- the "livi" and Lily sounds don't work for me, although I'm sure there are hundreds of Olivia Lily's out there right now
BOYS:
Scott Robert -- that's fine
Rory Alexander -- I prefer Rory as a nn, but I don't mind it as a given name for a boy
William Stephen -- nice and traditional
Philip William -- ditto
Christian Henry -- a bit fresher sounding (it's funny that these last three are all two-syllables, though)
Charles Matthew -- nice ... the nn Charlie is adorable
Theo Cameron -- Theo is NOT a given name. Cameron is nice, and spelled correctly (extra points LOL)
Gregory Simon -- Simon Gregory flows better, but no biggie. ;)
Oscar Devin -- that's fine
Hunter Michael -- Hunter still puzzles me. Unless you ARE a hunter, it definitely comes across as a name you chose just because it sounds "cool" to you, without regard to the fact that it's also a word, meaning one who tracks and kills animals
Thomas James -- nice. traditional
Robert Daniel -- fine ... don't call him Bobby hehe
Parker Hal -- Hal is a nn. Parker Henry would be nice. Henry Parker, nn Hal, even better!
TWINS:
Lilian Sophia & Violet Isabella -- gag! I actually love both Lilian and Violet, despite popularity and/or celebrity usage, but together?! Lily and Violet ... too cutesy! Sophia and Isabella are perfect popular twin names (I know they're in the mn slot here, but they definitely go hand-in-hand as far as popular, similar names go)
Joseph Henry & Clifford James -- fine, respectable, non-matchy twin names, even if they probably aren't exactly my style
Frederick Tyler & Ethan Thomas -- Ethan seems much more trendy or "now" than Frederick, so it seems an odd combo. But at least they're not Caden and Jadon or something.
