Comments:
Angus Kendall - Like this, esp. Angus
Billy Lee Jet - Billy is ridiculous as a given name, imo, esp. with the terribly repetitive Lee tacked on, and then add Jet. Why?
Cannon Gabriel Cline - I don't like naming children after weapons. Gabriel Cline would've been nice.
Madden - Just sounds like dad might be obsessed with the sports video game. Ugh.
Silas River - Nice!
Isaac - like
Asa Elizabeth - NOOOOOOO! Asa is masculine, people!
Ciel Sakurai - Not familiar with the mn, but it's a little too close to samurai for me. Ciel is interesting. I grew up with a girl named Ciel but she went by her mn, Danielle.
Ivy - like this
Jersey Lee - not a boy? *sigh*
Meridian - seems ridiculous for a name, imo
Nova Mae - kinda cute
Tawni Jo - not attractive to me
Tzippora Rose - Rose is so over imo (lol) but I like the fn though I prefer the Zipporah spelling. As for Lily--I know one adult Lily, and there have been 6 baby girls named Lily (or Lilly) at our hospital over the last year and a half. I'm surprised I've only seen one so far this year, but it's still soaring up the charts, I think. I love it, but I'm afraid it's getting too trendy. :-/

Boys (I like):
I don't like any of them.Girls (I like):
Gladys Angel
The rest, um, no.
Why the sudden interest in boys names for girls? And, I've never understood Nevaeh. I know it's Heaven backwards, but it's not a name in my opinion. And, as much as I like Ireland as a country, why is it getting popular as a name? It's like London and Paris. Why? I love Lily. It's a lovely name. I don't know any Lily's personally.
Here are some middle name ideas for Lily:
Lily Celeste
Lily Claire
Lily Sophia
Lily Noelle (too Christmasy?)
Lily Christine
Lily Angelica
Lily Marie
Lily Catherine
Lily Maria
Lily Olivia
Lily Estelle
Lily Kendra
Lily Diana
Lily Jordan
Lily Amanda
Lily Alexandra
Lily Cassandra
Lily Amelia

I wish Adonis was spelled right, it's a really neat name.
Angus is great. Kendall is ugly, but maybe it's a family name or something.
Billy Lee Jet is silly.
Cannon is ridiculous. Gabriel Cline is nice enough, if Cline is a family name or something.
Kai is horrible, Michael is boring.
Korbia Elie-James is... puzzling. Looks like a girl until you get to the James.
Madden is ick.
Rabi Arman is kind of cool.
Silas River is pretty good I think.
Teagan is horrible horrible horrible. Nicholas is a neat name though.
Werner Isaac is pretty awesome.Asa Elizabeth is okay. Asa's nice and unusual, but not very interesting.
Ashlie Rain is horrible.
Aspen Lee is gross.
Cadyn is one of the worst things ever. Emily is okay but really, really boring.
Ciel Sakurai is waay too precious.
I hate Eden. Renate is kind of cool.
Gladys is good to see on a baby, but I really don't like Angel.
Haven is okay and kind of bad. Nora Magdalene is wonderful.
Ireland is a horrible name. Laine is cutesy. The flow is really bad.
Ivy Lynn is very, very cute, and Lynn is very, very filler.

Angus Kendall: The uber-trendy, usually female, Kendall paired with the very old-fashioned Angus seems very odd.Billy Lee Jet: Redneck superhero who can FLY!!!Madden Michael: Don't, please! Don't madden Michael, you know how he gets!Rabi Arman: Destined to be called Rabbi, Rabies and Rabbit.Asa Elizabeth: zzzssszzzAspen Lee: great name for a ritzy mountain subdivision.Ireland Laine: A street within Aspen Lee.Meridian Kate: And her sister, Medium Joan?Nevaeh Rayne: Definite porn star material.Sofia Mohamed: That Mohamed seems pretty funny on a girl.Starlet Tadiwanashe: I'd say porn star name, but that mn is so unpronounceable and random, it would never work.Tawni Jo: Redneck porn star name. Famous for possibly wearing denim bib overalls with nothing under them.I don't know personally any Lilys, but I know of a Lily Brooke, and I know an elderly lady named Lillian who goes by Lily.Lily Anne MarieLily JoyLily DawnLily SuzanneLily Carol

Sofia MohamedIt is traditional for some Muslims to have middle names after their fathers. This tradition holds for girls as well. I was actually more surprised to see it with Sofia. :-)

LilyI know one Lily-- the daughter of an acquaintance. She's about 2 years old. Her middle name is (*sigh*) Bean. Lily Bean.

aarrrgh!People, whatever silly nickname you used to refer to the child in utero, get rid of it once the kid is born! No Beans, Buds, Peanuts, Shrimps or Bubbs, please!

I assumed it was a pop culture reference...I never considered it could be a reference to the baby looking like a bean! That's silly, too. I just assumed it was inspired by Kurt Cobain's daughter Frances Bean. Either way, "Bean" is no good in my opinion. :(

as a matter of fact...The story is that Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love chose the mn Bean because that's what they called the baby from how her ultrasound pictures looked.

Really? I always wondered. Urgh. That is not cool :-/

well, considering the parents...Were heavy drug users and all-around skanks, I guess they did better than anybody can expect. lol

I think it's kind of cute for a nn, but not as an actual given name. My niece (13 months) gets called Lucy-Bean by everyone, but her *actual* name is just Lucy.
