omg.. there are so many horrible names, I can't comment them all ;)I'm quite confused about Jenavive. How do they pronounce that name? like Genevieve?
-Toilynn reminds me of a little kid trying to say "toilet"...
-Autto (Auto is short for "car" in german)
-Bauer (means "farmer" in german)
-Alijah for a boy??But I like Vera, Thea, May, Hazel, Finnian, Aldrick.

girls:Autumn Flower -This sounds like a child named her. Like a six-year-old thought this name up. And you can excuse a six-year-old, but...
Sparrow Jennifer Irene -I actually like Sparrow more than Jennifer and Irene.
Traeh Ann (Shaya, Caylea, Ember) -I don't even know how to pronounce Traeh, but my computer wants to autocorrect it to "Trash." The siblings are better, but not by a lot.
Damiana Mei -I'm cool with this. I've only ever known of one Damiana before.
Winry -Looks like a "Wintry" typo which still isn't a name
Aliyan Memphis Violet -Well, Violet is nice.
Ellie Paige-Rainbow -Well, it is Pride month. What the hell
Elora Roisin -Not my style, but whatever.
Mia Marie Amparo -Two forms of the same name for two names. Bleh.
Roselaine -Because Rose Elaine or Rosaline were too much?
Isla May (Suzanna, Michaela, Colby, Landon, Tate, Theodore) -I feel like the losers in this group are actually Colby and Landon.
Jenavive Danielle (Matthew, Timothy, Hailee, Briahnna, Rosalie) -And to think Genevieve was an option too.
Guinevere Iseult -I kind of love this.
Izailya Germany Marie -They think Azalea is just Iggy's last name, don't they? They've never seen an actual flower in their lives. And Germany??? At least she call fall back on Marie.
Solstice -Weird, but I also kind of like it. idk.
Hazel Rebellia Jane -Hazel Jane would have been nice too.
Sylvia Beatrix -I kind of love this one.
Aoileann Tilly Mae -How do you say this? Like Elian? Whatever.
Sunset Jewel -Sunset would have been enough without them adding Jewel and making her sounds like she works a pole for money.
Toilynn -Toilette was also on their list so she should count her blessings.
Jilliannah Jo -When Juliana and Julian have a baby. Jo isn't even a full name.
Vera Lucille -Lucille isn't my style, but Vera Lucille is just such a stand out name when it comes to the apparent education level being displayed here.
Mars -God of War. Yeah, that's what I'd named my kid. *eyeroll*
Towsyn -wtf?
Shailene Montserrat -Um...why not

Aoileann is pronounced ee-lin, apparently. It also apparently means "fair maiden" or "seagull" which is delightful. It's in the submissions: http://www.behindthename.com/name/aoileann/submitted

Some comments:Autumn Flower - cute in theory, but sounds too much like a My Little Pony or a Flower Fairy or similar.
Sparrow Jennifer Irene - I kind of like Sparrow. Not too fond of the other names, but I guess they are honoring.
Traeh Ann - Traeh is awful. People will think her name is "Tray". Why not give her a name meaning "heart" or "love" instead?
Aliyan Memphis Violet - ooh oh, I'm an Aliyan, I'm a legal Aliyan...
Ellie Paige-Rainbow - Ellie Paige Iris would be so much better.
Elora Roisin - not bad.
Mia Marie Amparo - Mia and Marie are too similar, otherwise cute.
Roselaine - interesting.
Guinevere Iseult - wow, beautiful.
Izailya Germany Marie- what is Izailya? How do you pronounce it? And...Germany?
Solstice - I actually think this is cool.
Hazel Rebellia Jane - Rebellia is silly.
Sunset Jewel - tacky.
Toilynn - toiling? Toilet?
Jilliannah Jo - ick.
Mars - not the very best Astrological/Mythological name. And on a girl?
Towsyn - sounds like someone who can't pronounce "thousand."
Luella Francscilla - "no no, first c, then s, then c...no, not Francisca! It's c, s...oh, never mind..."
Imogen Ada - good.
Heaven Dawn Star - *belch*
Madelyn Marie (Camryn, Bretton, Breckyn, Beckett, Kenzingtyn) - she was apparently the lucky one.
Seraphina Iris - lovely.
Espyn Lou (Radke, Kansas) - I've seen Espen in Norway, but that's male. What's Espyn?
Wylde Brookson - a wild brook son.
Autto Allen - Autto? Auto is car in many languages, so this looks ridiculous.
Myles Harley (Jayden [m], Westyn [m], Bryer [m], Ayla) - wow, they do love Y's.
Tobias Harlen (Mathias, Hazekiah) - I like Tobias and Mathias, but not Hazekiah.
Huxley Cannon "Huck" - UGLY.
Bauer - a German surname.
Wrigley - isn't that a chewing gum?
Knox Woodrow - knocks on wood.
Sullivan Walker & Winston Thomas - not too fond of Walker, otherwise good.
Emersyn Cora & Cicely Gladys (f/f) (Adylan, Evylan) - what's with all these Y's?!

I want to pronounce Aliyan as 'alien'.

I like:Sparrow Jennifer Irene - I'm normally not big on Sparrow, but this is a really interesting combo. It has a nice flow.
Ember (GP)
Elora Roisin - I've loved Elora since I was a child (it's the baby's name in Willow), and together this combo is super Irish.
Mia Marie Amparo - Not as big on the potential tongue-twister Mia Marie, but I am so glad to see a real-life Amparo!
Roselaine
Rosalie
Guinevere Iseult - Hehe, this is something I'd name my daughter!
Sylvia Beatrix
Vera Lucille
Shailene Montserrat - Feels kind of 70s, but I like it.
Imogen Ada
Seraphina Iris
Abigail Rose - I like Abigail, and I'm standing by my opinion! lol
Claire Elizabeth - A little boring, but still nice.
Cicely Gladys - She sure lucked out among her siblings!
&
Matthew
Timothy
Beckett
Harrison Leslie - Wow!
Aldrick Elwood - I normally think Elwood is either an old man or a Blues Brother, but I like the flow here.
Wesley Neftali
Finnian Gustav
Robin Elias (I'm assuming Drayton is an honoring surname)
Killian Michael Douglas Lloyd - I would personally take out Michael, to remove the heavy association with the actor, but otherwise this is a good name.
Knox Woodrow
Noah
Spencer Michael - Wow, there were two of them? I wouldn't think of Spencer as a "normal" name, since I've never met one in real life.
William
Philip
Julian
Rhett Merle - This is super Southern Gentleman (TM).
&
Ava Leticia & Alexander Grant
Uh... what?:Autumn Flower - This is almost as bad as Sunnee Autumn Day, though I seemed to be alone in thinking that was bad.
Traeh - Tray-uh? "Tray of" what, exactly?
Winry - I initially misread that as "Wintry." Winry isn't much better.
Izailya Germany - Way too much to list...
Hazel Rebellia Jane - Hazel and Jane are fine, but... Rebellia? Really?
Sunset Jewel - This is worse than Autumn Flower.
Toilynn - Like... you're toiling away in the sun?
Heaven Dawn Star - Oh, for Heaven's sake...
Espyn - I don't even know what this is supposed to be. Aspen?
&
Wylde Brookson - Trying way too hard.

Izailya Germany Marie - hello Azalea, is that you, and why are you in Germany?
Mars - hopefully the Bowie revival will have died down before she's old enough to be pestered by people asking if there's life on her
Wylde Brookson sounds like his mum gave birth in a stream in the forest. Maybe the same forest as Trail James's mum?
Bobby Aries is kind of cool - sounds like a 70s detective, probably has mini mirror shades
Rayden and Cash: my daddy was a bank robber
Emersyn, Adylan, Evylan... and Cicely Gladys!? One of these things is not like the others.Autto maded me lol & so did Kenzingtyn
what on earth is a Towsyn? brings to mind 'twpsyn' - a Welsh word for idiot
Guinevere Iseult is maybe a tad overly romantic
Roselaine is nice
Elora Roisin is quite nice too, as are Sylvia Beatrix, Vera Lucille, Imogen Ada & Ava Leticia
vote up1
Sparrow Jennifer Irene - Sparrow is cute and Jennifer and Irene do a lot to ground it and make it all sound like a name
Traeh Ann (Shaya, Caylea, Ember) - i'm not sure how to say this, is the thing. try-uh?
Damiana Mei - interesting! i'm kinda into it
Winry - really obvious anime reference, but you could do worse. Fullmetal Alchemist is a really well-written series and Winry is a decent namesake.
Aliyan Memphis Violet - not Aliyah? Aliyan? not sure what to make of that.
Ellie Paige-Rainbow - the hyphen seems out of place but the thing i actually like least here is Paige. Ellie Rainbow feels a lot lighter.
Elora Roisin - the flow is a little R-heavy (-ra Ro-) but otherwise nice?
Mia Marie Amparo - never liked the name Mia
Roselaine - flowery but sorta neat
Guinevere Iseult - very very Arthurian
Hazel Rebellia Jane - i would be more into this if there was any chance "Rebellia" wasn't, like, some kinda confederate/rebel-flag southern-pride thing
Sunset Jewel - pretty cheesy but it wouldn't be so bad to just go by Sunny
Toilynn - toilet :c
Jilliannah Jo - kinda intrigued by Jilliannah but i think i'd like it better spelled Jillianna
Vera Lucille - pretty
Mars - feels weird and un-namelike on its own like that
Towsyn - i used to live near an area called Towson but boy i sure wouldn't name a kid after it.
Luella Francscilla
Imogen Ada - Ada feels weird in the middle name slot but they're both pretty names
Heaven Dawn Star - boy this is a whole lot
Madelyn Marie (Camryn, Bretton, Breckyn, Beckett, Kenzingtyn)
Seraphina Iris - this feels like a whole lot of pretty/sharp/delicate that maybe needs something different to balance it out
Thea Maxine - love it!
Lillian Michal - i assume the middle name is said like Michael but i keep wanting to say "mish-ALL"
Isabelle Harper Sun - Sun as a second middle name is making this combo a lot more colorful
Espyn Lou (Radke, Kansas) - Lou is cute as filler middle name. is Espyn that name-version of ESPN or something else?
Genesis Petra - i like Petra!!!

Assuming the parents are pronouncing it correctly, it's more like mee-KHAL. It's Michal (2) in the database.

Yikes!A few thoughts: Traeh — heart spelled backwards? Really? What is with this trend of reversing words and using them as names? Traeh is also one letter from Trash, which is unfortunate. Autocorrect will likely change it to trash. Kenzingtyn— wow. Just wow. Kensington is bad enough but Kenzingtyn just looks like a parody of tryndee names, like MikMadysynne or Nevaehleighdyn. Mars — was this really used on a girl? Mars is the Roman god of war and a traditional symbol for maleness. I’m all for bending gender but this is too much.Rayden — I’m starting to be convinced that the -ayden trend isn’t actually dying out, just evolving. Aiden and Cayden were the 90s thing, now we’re moving on to Zayden and Rayden. To be fair I don’t actually hate this name, just wondering when this trend will lose steam. Brewen — like brewing coffee or alcohol? Really? This name has no other association for me. I’m starting to think some folks will take any random syllable, slap -en on the end of it, and turn it into a name. The good:Tillian — this reminds me of the singer with the same name, and I’m a big fan of him so I kinda like this.Ava LeticiaAva is meh but I love the name Leticia, and it fits well in this combo. Severin Raymond — I know it follows the -in trend, but I still adore the name Severin. It seems sweet and substantial, which is kind of a rare combination.Robin Elias Drayton — love Robin Elias as a combo, and I’m assuming (hoping?) Drayton is a family surname.
