Alethea - I love Althea
Elfriede - Living in the US I would prefer to spell it Elfrieda or Elfreda or Elfrida. With those spellings I love it.

Kester - Too surnameish, one of my best friends in high school had this surname. My mom annoyingly called him Evan Keister in private because she has a childish sense of humor. I prefer Kestrel as a name.
KittoDislike
Obadiah
Hereward - Also too surnameish, https://www.houseofnames.com/hereward-family-crest

RoarI love Minerva and Violet.
Your boy's names are mostly not my style but to each their own.

It was fun seeing Elfriede on your list! It is one of those old too often overlooked names. Alethea and Caspar are both very nice.
