[Opinions] Re: Top 10 for January
in reply to a message by NobodyOfConsequence
August Noah - Fresh and current, without being too hipster.
Micah Jarrod - Normally I prefer Jared, but Jarrod does look better with Micah. Combo is just a little bit Surfer Dude, but still pleasant.
Leo Carter - Not my style, but hardly objectionable.
Chase Ezekiel - Ezekiel is a cool name that I wish I saw more often (and as a first name you'd get the nickname "Zeke"), but Chase needs to go away. Quite a few people think the name Hunter is violent, but I honestly feel like Chase is more menacing / foreboding.
Elijah Wilson - Interesting middle name. I like it!
O'Reilly Jonathan - I love Jonathan, but have no idea what O'Reilly is doing in the first name slot.
Archer Hugo - I cannot get on the Archer bandwagon (really don't like the "arch" part). What about Arthur Hugo?
Jack Lincoln - Not a big fan of Lincoln as a name, and this is a very abrupt, even staccato, combo.
Thomas Xavier - Handsome.
Miller Samuel - For some reason, Miller Light popped into my head upon seeing this. And then, looking at Samuel, I was reminded of Sam Adams lagers. Basically, this combo just makes me think of beer.
Lilia Adele - Love both names, but not together. The end of Lilia runs through the beginning of Adele and slurs the whole thing.
Willow Sarah - Very soft and graceful.
Aurora Ivy - I love the idea of Aurora so much more than the reality. I have some difficulty saying it in a way that sounds attractive (the Rs run into each other). But Ivy is cute with it.
Indie Sinead - I think India Sinead would be gloriously original (despite some "colonialist" impressions people might have from the name India - unless, of course, you've been there), but I cannot get behind Indie as a name. I keep thinking it means "independent (production)."
Sasha April - I feel like both these names belong in wildly different genres. Sasha would be a better pairing with Willow, to be honest; whereas April is quite... bracing. I don't think these names match at all, sorry.
Hazel Alice - Like with Lilia Adele, the "el" and "Al" run into each other and slur the name significantly (at least, when I say it).
Maya Riley - Very modern, would fit in with lots of other names today. Like Maya, though I'm still not big on Riley as a girl's name (even though I actually have a niece named Rylie).
River Amalie - I love it! I honestly thought I was alone in liking River as a feminine name! I blame Firefly...
Elaina Holly - Sweet and soft, but not too soft. Has a similar vibe to Willow Sarah.
Romy Elizabeth - Not big on Romy as a full name, or a nickname, sorry. Romilly is alright. Romilly Elizabeth? Or is that too much?
