Nina Imogen-That's really cute & refreshing.

Justine Monica-That's nms.

Georgia Willow-Hm, that's not bad.

Freya Simone-Nice nice.

Cecily Irene-Ah! That's darling.

Lucy Alexandra-I like it.

Valerie Enid-I kind of like Valerie.

Sarah Isabelle-That's nice.

Rory Catherine-Hm. This is cute, but I think Rory is better as a nn.

Natalie Olivia-NMS, but not bad.

Megan Christina-Same as above.

Ella Judith-I like Ella.

Lucy Rose-Darling.

Mary Virginia-I like Virginia.

Caroline Frances-That's classic.

Scarlett Rose-Nice.

Jenny Michaela-Jenny is cute as a nn. I don't like Michaela, but at least it's spelled right.

Meredith Abigail-That's nms, but it's fine.

Lilian Isabella-I love that.

BOYS:

Declan Bishop-I really like Declan. I wonder where Bishop came from.

George Charles-That's fine. I like Charles.

Philip Owen-Ooh, I like that a lot.

Gustavo -Kind of interesting. Gus is cute.

Callum Alexander-Ah! I love it.

Joseph Montgomery-Very handsome.

Stuart Jacob-That's really nice. Stuart is fun to see.

Michael Campbell-I like those names seperatly.

Austin James-That's fine.

Benjamin Lee-I really like Benjamin.

Matthew Scott-I love that.

Jack Maxwell-Very cute.

Alec Jonathan-Oh, I love that.

Morgan Davis -It's nice to see Morgan on a boy.

Fraser Thomas-Interesting.

William Samuel-I love William.

Ivan Zachary-Oh, that's cool.

TWINS:

As always, these are so great! ;) Thanks for sharing.

GIRLS:

Melissa Grace -- a little hissy, and a bit dated (I grew up with a Melissa Grace, and I don't know how many Melissas in general LOL).

Amy Eliza -- Amy's really dated too, but Eliza is sweet.

Alice Sophia -- Alice is wonderful! Sophia doesn't work with it that well, however.

Nina Imogen -- Nina is nms, but fine for someone else. LOVE Imogen. ;)

Justine Monica -- dated.

Georgia Willow -- the fact that this sounds like a description of tree throws me off, but I like the names otherwise.

Freya Simone -- Freya is lovely! ;) Simone is ok, but nms.

Cecily Irene -- wonderful!

Lucy Alexandra -- common, but Lucy is so sweet.

Valerie Enid -- Valerie is dated, but Enid is interesting.

Sarah Isabelle -- hehe pet peeve of mine. I could never use Isabelle in the mn slot. You can't help but hear the phrase "Sarah is a bell." Just odd to me.

Rory Catherine -- Aurora Catherine, nn Rory, would have been an exceptionally splendid combo! Rory Catherine is just eh. Having the option of using the more formal or more playful name is just so much more appealing. But then I couldn't name my dd Sam, Alex or Max either, though they're great for spunky, boyish nns. ;)

Natalie Olivia -- fine separately, but the -alie Oliv-ia sounds are too much together.

Megan Christina -- love Megan. Christina is another dated one.

Ella Judith -- popular, but interesting combo.

Lucy Rose -- too common, though again, Lucy is very sweet.

Mary Virginia -- love to see Mary on a little girl! Lovely.

Caroline Frances -- sweetly old-fashioned. I like it.

Scarlett Rose -- LOL Ok, honestly, I love both names apart, but putting them together like that is just corny. Will her sisters be Amarilla Daisy and Indigo Violet??

Jenny Michaela -- Jenny is still too 1980 for me, but Michaela is nice (and refreshing to see it spelled correctly, instead of morphed into a Mc- name wannabe LOL)

Meredith Abigail -- wonderful combo!

Lilian Isabella -- a little L-heavy, but it works.

BOYS:

Declan Bishop -- fantastic!

George Charles -- love both, but wouldn't have paired the two (too choppy with both being single syllable names).

Philip Owen -- not sure how I feel about these together, but Philip is refreshing.

Gustavo -- assuming their ln isn't Smith or something, fantástico!

Callum Alexander -- love Callum, but don't like Alexander with it (besides the whole Alex- names thing, the "al" sounds are just too repetitive).

Joseph Montgomery -- Joseph is nms, but I really like this combo. ;)

Stuart Jacob -- aww ... I like Stuart.

Michael Campbell -- too many C and L sounds here.

Austin James -- one of those "we want to call him AJ" names.

Benjamin Lee -- Benjamin is common, and Lee is nms, but the combo is still fine.

Matthew Scott -- Matthew just doesn't do it for me. I like the name, but having grown up with literally dozens of them it's really lost its sparkle.

Jack Maxwell -- Private Eye. hehe The Jack Max- sounds are too similar for me.

Alec Jonathan -- at least it's not another Alex (not exactly anyway).

Morgan Davis -- LOVE IT! Seriously, I couldn't like this more.

Cameron Colin -- Nooo. :( Two C____n names is one too many. LOL

Dominic Gregory -- Simply Dominic Gregor would flow better, but I really like this regardless.

Fraser Thomas -- that's neat.

William Samuel -- like them apart, but the -liam Sam- sounds back-to-back don't work for me (I'm picky I suppose LOL).

Ivan Zachary -- Zachary's a bit too dated for me, but this combo is still great.

TWINS:

Henry Nicholas & Richard James -- classic. Richard James is my dad's full name. ;)

Eve Rosalie & Joseph Neil -- again, Joseph is not generally my style, but love the mn Neil here. The girl name is nice as well.

Mallory Faith & Gavin Basset -- Faith seems a bit too filler next to Basset, but Mallory and Gavin are nice for twins. Not matchy/cutesy in the least.

Well girl wise I'm partial to Melissa Grace, my name being Melissa of course, but it is a nice name. I also liked Sarah Isabelle and Scarlett Rose, both very pretty. Boy wise I liked Callum Alexander best of all. I also liked Dominic Gregory and Ivan Zachary.
