Taryn - Just ok. Don't like the y much. I kind of liked Teagan or Tehya
Audra - Like this a lot. Audra and Ariana are a little too similar though (My daughter is Audrey, I wanted Audra, but my husband didn't like it)
Cecilia - Love this! My husband wouldn't agree to it. You are lucky!

Nolan - Like this, was one of our compromise name, runner up for our last son.
Patrick - Like this
Elliott - Love this

his list (after looking through the name book):

Keri - don't like at all
Maya - nice
Marissa - nice
Colleen - nice
Delaney - too cutesy
Jocelyn - never liked this name at all.
Kylie - too cutesy, won't work for an adult woman. Only as a nickname in my opinion. I do like Kaia. Kaia was one of our compromise names on our short list.
Michaela - My DH liked this also. Like this spelling best, but I wouldn't use due to the trendiness.
Alondra - Don't like this. Do like Liora or Eliora.
Sabina - Like this
Marina - Like this alot
Layla - Ok, this is the new Kayla

Payton - don't like
Liam - Love this
Cooper - Like, but a little cutesy. I still like it
Brenton - dislike alot
Logan - ok
Dallas - dislike
Kevin - too boring
Tristan - Like a lot
Maddox - Really dislike this one
Spencer - Others like, not bad.
Draven - Worst on your list in my opinion. Drake is better
Brett - Ok
Alec - Ok
Cillian Like it, but I prefer Cian
Dane - Like this alot

Bianca - OK
Stella - Love this!
Cecilia - Love this!
Daniella - OK
Taryn - Don't like
Greta - OK
Audra - Love this!

Jared - Like this
Nolan - Like this alot
Keegan - Like it, Like Keaton better.
Taylor - don't like at all
Toby - too cutesy, much prefer Tobias or Tobin
Reed - Love this
Kieran - Don't like. Too much like Karen (my name). I do like Kian/Cian

MNs.. Love Eloise and Rosalind/Rosamund. Like all of your boys middle names:George, Elliott, Patrick, Calvin and Gregory

I don't think your tastes are too far apart. Not as diverse as mine and my husband's.
