Amarla looks like they tacked on an A to the name Marla. I much prefer Marla.I like:
Liv (I prefer Olivianna with Liv as a nickname)
Davyd (I prefer the spelling David)
Charlye (I prefer Charles with Charlie as a nickname - that spelling only)
Taelor (I prefer the spelling Taylor for a girl and Tayler for a boy)
OceanaEdit: Corrected spelling of a name.

I think I prefer Marla to Amarla.I like these:Mack Arthur~ It makes me think of "MacArthur Park", and while the name is cheesy, I think Mack is awesome.
Honesty~ Because I love virtue names.
Angelisa~ I think it's interesting, and it gets to my inner thirteen year old (who had a character named Fernchessya).
Wilfredo~ This is cool! I prefer Wilfred, like Wilfred Owens, but I like this.
Violet~ Too bad it's getting popular
Raelyn~ I don't like this, but I had to mention that it reminds me of the Raelians! Ick!
Vaughn~ Prefer Vaughan
Seamus~ So much fun, and it's not the worst to pronunce
Katalina~ Prefer the proper spelling, Catalina, and I love it!
Marin~ Prefer the spelling Maren, and I like the name Marina best
Jacynda~ Prefer the spelling Jacinda
Ginger~ This was the name of one of my best friends
Judy~ Love it as a nickname!
Dov~ Love it also as a nickname
Pallas
Keturah~ So pretty!
Sincere~ Prefer Sincerity, and as a middle name
Lorense~ Maybe it's supposed to be like Lorenz? I really like that name.
Santana~ Hee! I'd only use this as a middle name, but it's cool. I love Carlos Santana.
Alma~ Love it. It's gorgeous and so rare.
Augustine~ Love it on a boy.
Oceana~ It's nice enough.Array
