BOYS


Tristan - really like this
Drake - reallly don't like this
Walker - too surnamey, it's OK as a first, but I wouldn't choose it
Landon - love this
Rhys (Reese) - it's OK, but it's going to the girls kind of, definitely unisex
Hunter - like this, came across a girl with this name at a soccer game the other day, but I still like it for a boy
Mason - OK, don't hear it too much, which is a nice thing
Lukas nn Luke - I would spell it Lucas, but I do like Luke a lot by itself
Lane - dont like at all


Finn - really, really dislike, yuck, sorry


Greyson - is OK
Noah - like it a whole lot, but it's awfully popular
Ripley - like in Ripley's Believe It or Not? don't go there


GIRLS


Calais (Ca-lay) - too odd, people will mispronounce
Piper - I love this, don't know why, but I do
Jade - like Jaida or Jada better, Jade is just too short, Jade is a good middle name
Makayla - I like it, not overly popular
Isobel - really don't like it at all, too old
Leah - so plain
Reese - hmm. you have it up there with boys too, I like it better on a boy, but concede it's gone girl
Analeise - like the whole name, don't like the nicknames
Caroline - don't like, too old-fashioned
Ivy - don't care for
Natalie - is OK, just OK
Anabelle - don't like at all
Lorelei - don't like at all
Hadley - so unfeminine
Amelia - is OK, a little old for my tastes
Colby - too unisex
Elizabeth - too common, in every decade for the past 150 years
Falyn - nah
Finn - awful for a girl, I don't even like it for a boy
Whitley - kinda cute, I like Whitney too
