(i know theres 11 i cant make up my mind!)|||Hello! Here's what I think:





girls-


Avery-Willow - 0/10 Love the names Avery and Willow seperately, I think doing hyphenated names are a huge hassle for your child, stick with Avery Willow as first and middle names. Avery Willow gets an 8/10





Arribella - 5/10, prefer the correct spelling Arabella. Beautiful name, but reminds me too much of the now overused Bella.





Ocean - 3/10, as I would rather use Océane. Either way, not one of my favorites. I would much rather use a name that had a meaning that had something to do with the ocean instead of just "Ocean," such as Mer, Keilani or Moana





Isabella - 4/10, beautiful but way overused these days. I would steer clear just due to sheer popularity.





Bridey - 2/10, sounds made up, it seems like it is just the word "Bride" with a 'y' on the end. Doesn't do it for me. If you like this style, what about something like Birdie?





Coral - 6/10, not really a fan of people naming children after an object, but this is a good start. Instead of Coral, what about something like Coraline or Coralie?





Marina - 6/10, another good option if you wanted an ocean-inspired name without actually using the word ocean. Not my favorite, but nice.





Tamara - 3/10, reminds me of Tia and Tamara from Sister, Sister. Seems like a very 90's trend name to me, and I don't really think it ages well.





Elysah - 1/10 - not even sure how to pronounce this one...like EE-lee-sah? or Ah-liss-uh? Either way, would much prefer the correct spellings for these. This one looks like a made up spelling.





Farrah - 6/10, not my favorite but definitely a very pretty name. Not too common, but still classic and timeless. Like it.





boys-





Romeo - 9/10, love it! I am a huge fan of literature names (we have Juliet, Atticus, Lysander and a few others on our list). Romeo is a very masculine that has proven to stand the test of time. Good pick!





Bentley - 0/10, too trendy, is the name of a car!, will be out of style in 10 years, steer clear.





Mason - 9/10, love this one also. Strong and classic. Goes well with lots of different middle names.





Riley 0/10 for a boy, as I find this name to be very feminine these days. 8/10 for a girl.





Jacob 3/10 - good name, but same problem as Isabella. Ridiculously popular (both were the #1 names on the Social Security Administration list of popular names for 2009)





Corben - 2/10 - prefer the spelling Corbin. Don't care for the name, sounds made up quite honestly (although I know it is a legit name)





Caleb - 6/10 - not bad, not my favorite either.





Gabriel - 4/10, too biblical for my tastes, although I respect the name itself.





Lloyd - 0/10, reminds me of my old and creepy next door neighbor growing up. Not a favorite at all.





Lyle - 2/10, sounds very "rural" if you know what I mean. Much prefer the name Kyle.





Beau - 10/10, love it! I am a huge sucker for french names, and what is more masculine than a word meaning "boyfriend." This is a great choice!

1. Charlotte


2. Quinn

Charlie|||Avery-Willow - Avery is lovely. I'm not a huge fan of Willow. And I don't really like these two hyphenated, but it's okay.


Arribella - Too made-up/misspelled. Arabella is much classier and prettier.


Ocean - I'm not a huge fan, but it could grow on me. It's sorta/kinda pretty.


Isabella - So, so, so, so popular -- too popular for my taste. I actually prefer Isobel.


Bridey - Cute in an weird/awkward way.


Coral - I kind of like it, actually.


Marina - So pretty. I love it. It just rolls right off the tongue.


Tamara - I ike this name, as well. I know two Tamaras. They pronounce it differently though. One says it tuh-mare-uh and the other says hers tam-uh-ruh. It also reminds me of 'Dawson's Creek' (in the first season, the teacher was named Tamara). It's a pretty name!


Elysah - I like it alright, but I prefer Elisa.


Farrah - I don't like it.





Romeo - I really like this for a little boy. It's so cute!


Bentley - Again, very cute! I like it!


Mason - Very popular, but very cute as well.


Riley - Again, too popular for my personal taste but I still really like it a lot.


Jacob - Eh, don't like it at all.


Corben - Love, love, love it.


Caleb - Hate it!


Gabriel - Don't care for it.


Lloyd - Horrible (sorry!)


Lyle - Not a huge fan, but it's okay. I prefer it as a middle name.


Beau - Cute, simple, and hansome.





;)|||Avery-Willow - too green


Arribella - arrivederci!


Ocean - all wet


Isabella - regal


Bridey - the boys will all run away at the mention!


Coral - too deep


Marina - where do I dock my boat?


Tamara - that's when I'll cal ya.


Elysah - I'd forget this one





Farrah - too soon since death





Romeo - suicide


Bentley - overpriced english auto


Mason - fruit or vegetable keeper


Riley - ah! that's the life!


Jacob - Team other guy
