HelpI missed the part
in reply to a message by molly
where Austin and Evan are unisex names. :P
To me they're both all male.
Had I encountered this set on my own, I would misidentify the sex of the second child based on the fn. Also, I would usually assume Austin on a girl to be a familial surname used as a mn, though given the other details that may not be the case here.
Apart from all of that, though, I do see your point about balance, word names, common, uncommon, unisex, and I agree in theory that those characteristics are well used here. All four of these names are actually on my PNL right now. I just don't like these specific names being used in this specific way.
