Boys:

Axel - it makes me think of cars and petrol, mechanics and stuff. Can't really think of anything to put with it.
Caspian - I like it, it makes me think of the seas. Caspian Gilbert, Caspian Valentin / Caspian Valentine, Caspian Alexander, Caspian Edward, Caspian Samuel / Lemuel, Caspian Dominic, Caspian Philip
Boston - seems too place-namey to be a name for me.
Ellis - I like it. Ellis Andrew, Ellis Johannes, Ellis Alban, Ellis Oliver, Ellis Rory, Ellis Peter
Milo - eh. It reminds me of the Tweenies, a UK young children's show. I'm not a fan.
Nelson - too tied to Nelson Mandela and Horatio for me.
Atticus - it's alright, very strong literary vibes. Atticus James, Atticus Leighton, Atticus Emmanuel, Atticus Paul
Daxton - I don't like this at all.

Girls:
Ottilie - I want to like it, but it is gaining very quickly in popularity in the UK, especially among readers of the Telegraph, so it feels a little pretentious. Ottilie Jane, Ottilie Marie, Ottilie Emilia, Ottilie Rosaline, Ottilie Lydia, Ottilie Miranda, Ottilie Harriet
Viola - not bad. Viola Marie, Viola Marceline, Viola Margaret (apparently I really like Mar- names with Viola!) Viola Gabrielle, Viola Winnifred
Emersyn - ick. Don't like the name or the spelling
Paxton - doesn't feel like a name, too surnamey. Paxton Fiona, Paxton Elaine, Paxton Elizabeth, Paxton Danielle, Paxton Samara, Paxton Matilda, Paxton Olivia
Lennon - bit too surnamey for me. Lennox is slightly better (but only because there's a character called Lennox in a book I've read). Lennon Amelie, Lennon Sarah, Lennon Serafina, Lennon Astrid, Lennon Isabel
Camilla - it's not bad, although unfortunately I do immediately think 'Parker-Bowles'. Camilla Arianne, Camilla Natalie, Camilla Georgiana, Camilla Holly
Jasmine - not bad. Jasmine Oriana, Jasmine Faye, Jasmine Ariella, Jasmine Natalia
