Thank you!
Ooh, Isaac Mordecai...very nice.
I would go with Claire Rosalinda rather than Claire Melanie, personally.

I LOVE Atticus Jude! How handsome. And August Clark, but I think I've expressed my opinion on this. Violet Eleanor and Penelope Iris are flawless. Magnolia Caroline sticks out some, because both names are long and for some reason I don't dig Magnolia. (Not for any real reason though, just some weird internal prejudice.) And Beau sits kind of funny with Oscar imo.
Ooh, I adore your B/B set. Atticus and Oscar is a lovely combination, and I love Atticus Jude (Beau is just nms). Violet Eleanor is also lovely. I love August (though as Delphi_Blue said, I don't like it much with Clark). Though I'm not particularly in love with either name Magnolia Caroline sounds very beautiful. And hooray, Penelope!
Out of curiousity, would Atticus wind up with a nn? What would it be? The others I can think of some options but Atty? Cus? Tic? Or would you just try to avoid nns?

I would try to avoid nn's for Atticus. I don't particularly like any of the obvious nn options. Although it's inevitable that a name may be shortened from time to time, I think it is possible to stick to a full name and discourage nn's. Thanks for your comments, btw :)
I love August Milo! Also love August Emmett and August Rhys.
August Milo! Great combo. I love Milo- but there's the whole chocolate drink association in Australia, which kinda wrecks it :( Plus, I just seem to love August with an M mn- my combo is August Malachi ;)
I also think August Oliver and August Dashiell work quite well. I find Clark, and Rhys to be too abrupt, and I just can't say August Emmett or August Rocco- I love Emmett, but it just donest flow.

Felix and Theodore seem to go together pretty well, don't they? I'm hearing a lot of them together lately.
Well, I've heard Theodore Felix Augustus from me and Felix Theodore or Theodore Felix from my friend Grace. I've also heard Amelie and Charles from her. I think you guys would get along :)
Anyway I love all of these. So classy. I prefer Beatrice Amelie to Beatrice Kate, because today BK seems abrupt to me, although before I loved it. I don't konw. Elizabeth Ivy seems backwards to me because I love Ivy Elizabeth (argh! I hate loving it), but it's quite nice. Charles Jacob is the most handsome thing ever.

I love Beatrice Amelie, so pretty! And Felix Theodore is lovely...two of my favourites and I never thought of combining them that way. I don't think Charles Jacob really fits with Felix Theodore, not sure why...I love Elizabeth Ivy.

Ooooh, Felix Theodore...(m)
Is an absolutley stunning combo (I adore both names and can't use either :() They both have great meanings and sound good together. Beatrice Amelie is a nice combo, she'd have the same intials as my cousins, Beatrice Alexandra ;) Elizabeth Ivy is similarly lovely, although I'm not a fan of Eliza.

I love River, Shiloh and Cadence =)
I like Shiloh but for a girl.
From your classic set, I love River. I'm rather bored of Charlotte, but I adore the nn Lottie- would you use Lottie, or something else? (or no nn at all) I don;t like the sound of Shiloh, but I do prefer it on a boy.
As for the new set, wow. Deffinatley intersting. NRMS, but I give you bonus points for interesting names- I'm big on interesting.

I love Jordana Irene. I'm not digging Gabrielle, though. No idea why. Eve is wonderful.
Morgan Connor kind of startled me, because Jordana is Jordan, unisex, with an a tacked onto it, and Gabrielle is Gabriel + le, and Morgan is pretty unisex, and I've met girls named Connor. Morgan is a cool boys' name, and I used to love Connor but then my friend told me she hated it so I started hating it (weird how this happens, eh?), but it's strange to see all these gender-neutral-y names together, KWIM? Rudolf Vincent is great.
I think I prefer Rudolf to Rudolph, actually, but my mother prefers the ph, she says it's more regal. Whatev!

If I had twins right now, I would probably name them this:
- Boy/boy: Wilhelm Faramund & Rupert Fastwin.
- Boy/girl: Wilhelm Faramund & Odilia Lucille.
- Girl/girl: Odilia Lucille & Irina Heilgard.
Where I come from, it's custom to give a child two middle names - but I plan on giving my own children three middle names (which is not at all odd where I come from, either). But to keep things simple (plus I haven't figured the other middle names out yet), I just gave them one middle name here. :)

Oh how cool is this. Of course I live in Alabama, and those names might be ordinary where you come from. But Wilhelm Faramund? That's so cool. Odilia is one of my favorites. I assume Lucille is after you? Is your name Lucille? The combo's a little repetitive. Rupert's kind of pretentious to me. But FASTWIN? How cool is THAT?! Irina is very pretty, and Heilgard is awesome.
I wish 2+ middle names was the custom here. Sigh.
Fastwin man. I love that.

Oh, I love Evelyn Ruth. I want to like Frederick Jason "Freddy", but it reminds me too much of Freddy vs. Jason and such. Nice combo, though. Gabriel Joshua is very nice too.

Eh, I like Jo and Josie for Josepha, "Effie" seems light and silly to me. Josepha's cool though. Christine's nice, it doesn't jump out at me. I love June to death, but I am baffled by Eibhlin.
Freddie and Luther and Ezra and Iris and all their combos are all wonderful. I am still bowled over by Iris Julia, it's so good.

Zipporah is nice, I'm not fodn of Arielle, but "Ella" is nice iwth it. Romy Maddalena is nms, Romy was mostly popular here around 1996 or so (along with Demi at the time), so it seems a bit dated to me. I like Liam, but William not so much, Noah is ok, Milo Emerson looks very good. William Milo sounds a bit weird to me (I hear: "Willy am I low?" or "Willy and Milo"), but maybe that's just me :)
Comment on yours :)
Nore is nice, Celeste is not my thing, but flows nicely with it. Evelyn is nice, Ruth is not a fav. Oliver is nms, Jehu is an ok MN, although it sounds a bit like "Jay who?" to me. Zoie looks weird, I associate the name Beatrix with our queen (of the Netherlands), but it's ok. Frederick is not a fav, Jason is ok but togetehr they remind me of Freddy vs. Jason (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0329101/). Gabriel Joshua is very nice, especially with the nn "Gabe"
