Sherlyn Stefany: Yuck. I don't like the spelling, OR the flow. Bad combo all around.
Arianna Krystal: Sugary and without substance. Krystal is atrocious.
Lidia: Nice, but I prefer Lydia.
McKinley Sage: Oh, good god. McKinley? Really? They named their daughter after an assassinated (and slightly obscure) U.S. president? Well, since people are going with Kennedy these days, I shouldn't be too surprised.
Ellie Shae: Ellie is cute, but it should never be a given name. Why not Ellen, or Elaine? Shae is too soft and airy.
Gloria Grace: Cool to see Gloria for a change. Not so cool to see yet another Grace. Man, am I sick of that name.
Madeline: Nice. Might be a bit overused, though.
Hadley Nicholle: Hadley Nicole would have been better. Hadley is sweet.
Libby Eliza: Two Elizabeth nicknames as a full given name? All right, then. I guess only a name nerd would be upset over that.
Adam Joseph: Nice, if a bit boring. Adam is one of my favorite names.
Adrian Emiliano: Here we go. I adore Adrian, and Emiliano has a beautiful flow to it. Great combo; possibly the best on the list.
Teegan James: I think Teegan/Teagan should be a girls' name. It sounds hopelessly trendy and soft on a boy.

Orion seems to have become quite popular...
Here are the ones I like:
Sage
Ellie - but only as a nn
Hadley - I'm really ashamed that I find it appealing at all. I normally hate these "trendy-sounding" names. It's only a GP.
Eliza
Libby - but only as a nn
The ones I loathe because of their spellings are Stefany, Krystal and Nicholle. I hate the names enough already, but the bad spelling makes it worse.
Sherlyn and McKinley sound like surnames, or rather like names or companies or brands. It's a shame.
The names I like:
Adam Joseph - but boring combo
Adrian
James
Leon
Teegan is just silly, Teagan works fine, doesn't it?
Angel is simply a terrible name for a child, boy or girl.
Luis is nms, Payson Zayne is a whole disaster, and Orion Lee just isn't my style.
