[Opinions] Re: April UK BAs
in reply to a message by Evie.
Aisha - I'm not usually a fan of the "sh" sound in names.
Holly Isabelle - While I don't love Holly, it sounds quite fresh paired with Isabelle.
Lauren Lacey - I dislike both names, and they don't flow.
Evelyn Rose - Predictable, but pretty.
Maia Sophia - I dislike the double -a endings. But both names are lovely on their own.
Betsy Neith - Betsy! I love it. Quirky but recognizable.
Caitlin - It's alright. I like this spelling.
Elodie Grace - Elodie is quite pretty!
Daisy - Daisy is cute but I've known so many pets named Daisy so it's hard to picture on a person.
Mia Kaycee - Mia is cute, but I strongly dislike Kaycee. At least spell it right (Casey)...
Nieve - Snow in Spanish? Interesting.
Elissia - I really don't like this. Sounds insubstantial and made up.
Arianna Dawn - I went through an Arianna phase, but I obsessed over it so much it has lost its appeal. I don't like Dawn at all.
Ivy Joan - Ivy! Love it.
Emilia Chloe Anne - While I don't like the names much on their own, it sounds cute together.
Eliza Faith - I don't like Faith but Eliza is darling.
Jessica - Sooo dated to me.
Ada-Grace - I don't like the double names, but Ada is refreshing.
Ella Nicole - Ella is nice, but Nicole cheapens it.
Delilah Florence - This name reminds me of spring :)
Isla - I like the way Isla sounds and looks.
Gabriella Rebecca - They don't flow well at all...but it's fun to see Rebecca in the middle name slot.
Grace - Plain, but I still think it's pretty.
Siena Star - I don't like either...tacky.
Ayda - I prefer Ada, but I do like the sound of it.
Sophie Lila - Sophie is one of my favorites. Cute with Lila, too.
Sophia Elizabeth - I don't like the way these two names go together. It lacks sparkle.
Ivy Louisa - Delightful.
Elizabeth - A classic...I like it.
Maisie Lily-Ann - Maisie is adorable, and while I would have preferred Maisie Lillian, Lily-Ann isn't terrible.
Saga Aurora - I don't like the way they sound together, but each name is nice individually.
Lola Violet - I don't love Lola, but I LOVE Violet.
Sienna Rose - Again, Sienna is tacky to me.
Lana - I don't like Lana.
Megan Olivia - Megan is kind of the "it" name for girls my age (25ish) so it is weird to picture on a baby. Sounds nice with Olivia.
Gracie - Love it.
Sadhbh - I'm not 100% "fluent" in Irish names, so this one confuses me.
Poppy Summer - I don't like this...too "naturey."
Libbie Louise - Way too cutesy. I would have preferred Elizabeth Louise "Libby."
Hannah Lucy - They don't sound great together.
Gabriella - Nice enough, but not my style.
Scarlet Lily - Kind of literal, but not bad.
Boys
Ryan Anthony - I don't like Ryan, and I despise Anthony.
Samuel Leyton - They run together, but it's not too bad.
Ryan - Again, I don't like Ryan.
Alexander - This is a name I really like in its entirety, but I cannot stand any of its nicknames.
James - Classic and handsome.
Daniel Anthony - Daniel is nice, but I don't like Anthony at all.
Charlie - Charlie! One of my favorite names (not Charles, just Charlie), but my husband doesn't like it at all.
Jonah Arthur - Lovely.
Owen William Joseph - I like this a lot, actually. Owen grows on me every day.
Jake Alfie - A little too nicknamey.
