What about these...?

Hi All,

I posted a few weeks back with names for #2...

I have a dd named Emerson Jade and we are trying to find a name that sounds okay with Emerson. For a boy we like Parker and Gabriel, so far. There are others on the list (Caleb, Alistair, Griffin), but these two are the top contenders so far.

For a girl we are considering: Meredith, Avery, Alyssa and Mallory.

But... was wondering what you all thought of these for a dd to go with Emerson.
Lastname Logon-Matthews.

Andrea
Brinley
Marissa
Dakota

Thanks everyone!!

For a boy, I would avoid a surname or unisex name since your DD has one already.

Not sure if you wanted opinions on all the girl names or just the ones towards the bottom. FWIW, I like Meredith and Avery as sisters to Emerson much more than any of the others you mentioned. If, however, you only wanted opinions on these, here goes:

Andrea -- I like it, but grew up with quite a few Andreas so it seems a bit dated and doesn't have the same modern-trendy feel as Emerson
Brinley -- just not feeling it for some reason ;)
Marissa -- seems overly-feminine next to Emerson
Dakota -- certainly not overly-feminine ... really, doesn't sound like a very feminine name/name at all :(

Sorry, didn't want to be negative on all of them, but I know it ended up sounding that way. I do like Meredith and Avery the best for you though. I also really like Caleb and Griffin from your boy list, btw, with Alistair a close second. ;)

With Emerson Jade I like Caleb and Griffin for a boy.

For a girl I like Alyssa, Mallory or Marissa.
