Mason John - I like this one.

Maggie Elizabeth - I don't like Maggie as a given name. It's a great nickname, but too informal for an adult in my mind.

Avery Jameel - Avery I like, Jameel is nms

Derek Noah - nms

Angelina Michelle - okay.

Jack Patrick - a little too 'ck' for me. I adore Jack, but it is so overused.

Danielle Kimberly - nms.

Lexie Adrianna - Another case of loving it as a nickname, but don't like the informality of Lexie. Alexis or Alexandra, and then it's okay.

William Perry - a bit bland, but nice

Timothy Milton - eh.. okay

Christina Marie - simple

Mia Hillary - not bad

Celeste Madison - nms

Emerson Kerrie Paige - hoping Kerrie is a family name. Otherwise, love it.

Kristina Emily - okay

Ruth Gwendolen - nms

Juliana Louise - cute

Colin Christopher - like it

Connor Matthew - like it

Niyana Alyse - nmsaa

Joseph Jonah (Jr.) - as long as their last name doesn't start with J

Adrianna Lena - Lena is nms

Hooray!

Here are my thoughts:

Mason John-I like Mason. Mason John doesn't have the best flow, but it's not bad.

Maggie Elizabeth-Cute, but Maggie is too nick-namey. I still like the way this flows.

Avery Jameel-Hm. I'm afraid to ask the gender here.

Derek Noah-That's nice.

Angelina Michelle-NMS.

Jack Patrick-Dashing.

Danielle Kimberly-That's awfully 80s. It's nms.

Lexie Adrianna-Hm. That's cute, but Lexie is better suited as a nn, imo.

William Perry-I love this one.

Timothy Milton-I like Timothy.

Christina Marie-That's nms.

Mia Hillary-I love the Mia part.

Celeste Madison-I'm hoping that Madison is a family name here. Celeste is unique & feminine, where Madison is the oppisite. They certainly clash.

Emerson Kerrie Paige-Ugh, that's nms.

Kristina Emily-Meh. I like Emily, but can't get into Kristina.

Ruth Gwendolen-Props to them for spelling Gwendolen correctly! I don't love Ruth, but at least it's different & old fashioned.

Juliana Louise-Juliana is very pretty.

Colin Christopher-I like that.

Connor Matthew-Oh, loose the 'n'! Conor Matthew would be great. I'm so picky!

Niyana Alyse-NMS.

Joseph Jonah (Jr.)-That's sort of repetitive. This is the perfect excuse for a little JJ though. I like that.

Adrianna Lena-That's not my favorite, but it's nice enough.

Thanks for sharing.

"Maggie Elizabeth - I don't like Maggie as a given name. It's a great nickname, but too informal for an adult in my mind."

:D My brother's girl friend is Maggie and her identical twin sister is Margo lol. I agree with you that as a given name, I prefer to use Margeret (or Marguerite or Magdalen(a), etc) and I found it ironic that Maggie's sister was Margo :P.

I like Kerrie Paige like this without the Emerson.. Emerson sounds like a boys' name.

William Perry-I'm from Chicago so I immediately thought of William "the refridgerator" Perry. He played for the Chicago Bears and got his nickname for his VERY large size.

Sorry, this name is just funny to me because of that association! Love the name William though! : )

Mason John - this name is fine. I like Mason a lot.


Maggie Elizabeth - I'm not keen on Maggie as a first name because it seems more like a nickname of Margaret to me. I would LOVE Margaret Elizabeth.


Avery Jameel - Err . . . come again? These names just don't seem to match at all.


Derek Noah - I love this name.


Angelina Michelle - I also really like this name, but I'm partial to Italian names.


Jack Patrick - I'm not crazy about Jack.


Danielle Kimberly - Dated.


Lexie Adrianna - Lexie should not be a first name on it's own, but if this was Alexis Adrianna, I'd like it.


William Perry - I like this name. William will never go out of style and is a very solid, masculine name.


Timothy Milton - I could take or leave this name.


Christina Marie - I went to school with half a dozen Christina Marie's, so this name is dated to me.


Mia Hillary - These names don't go together well.


Celeste Madison - Celeste is a refreshing change, but why pair it with something like Madison?


Emerson Kerrie Paige - This works very well for me.


Kristina Emily - I think the same thing about this Kristina as I just did about Christina.


Ruth Gwendolen - I'm not sure about a name like Ruth with a beautiful name like Gwendolen.


Juliana Louise - LOVE IT (but I'm biased, because we've pretty much decided that we will name our daughter Giuliana)


Colin Christopher - this is nice :)


Connor Matthew - I'm not sure about Connor, but I do like this spelling of it.


Niyana Alyse - Is this a real name? It does nothing for me.


Joseph Jonah
