BAs from a hospital near me
The format is, as commonly seen:
Child's name (Parents' names) My Commentary
Michael William (Heather & Chris) A bit plain, but still nice and familiar-sounding.
Georgia Cate (Jaime & Joe) Georgia is awfully trendy, and Cate is a nn, not a proper name.
Riley Anne (Renee & Michael) At least her mn is distinctly feminine.
Daniel George (Renata & Francis) I don't like the combo, but they're both solid, steady names.
Gunner Jensen (Karen & Tom) Übertrendy. It strikes me as distinctly Scandanavian-American, also.
Safiy Ahmed (Sumer & Nabeel) All right.
Annabelle Christi (Claudine & David) I personally feel that Annabelle is overdone, and Christi is totally unacceptable as a given name, even as a mn. Claudine isn't particularly likeable either.
Mario Alberto (Irma & Manuel) I like that it's a strongly ethnic name, but the -o thing bothers me.
Victoria Michelle (Patricia & Eric) Victoria is fine, if slightly flowery. Michelle has never been one of my favorits, but I don't hate it.
Jordan Anthony (Stephani & Anthony) The -an_An- thing bothers me, but his mn is his father's fn, which I rather like.
Thomas Ryan (Amy & Thomas) Ryan is kind of popular, and I don't really like it when fns are shared within a nuclear family.
Luca Elias (Kristi & Nick) I like Luka better, and both Luca and Elias are trendy.
Angela Rose (Candace & John) It pleases me to see Angela instead of Angelina.
Britneey Celine (Ela) Cheese, I had hoped this was a typo... but it was there twice.
Camila Daniella (Celia & Wladimir) I don't like it.
Misa Lee (Tiffany & Chauncey) I think it's a boy...
Cayden Olivia (Christine & Thomas) This one is doomed to be "Girl Cayden" at preschool, and later she won't even be able to use her mn to stand out in a crowd...

I like:
Georgia
George
Thomas
Luca Elias - great combo
Camila
Olivia As for Cayden, I dislike it for both genders but esp. for a girl. I know twins, though, named Cayden--the girl--and Jaylen--the boy. :-

Michael William - Simply average, not bad, or outstanding.
Georgia Cate - Pretty good, somewhat of a classic.
Riley Anne - I'm turned off from Riley, it's soo trendy. I would only name a boy Riley. Anne is nice.
Daniel George - Daniel is quite nice, but I dislike George.
Gunner Jensen - Talk about trying to make your son look butch. Jensen is nice though.
Safiy Ahmed - Not my favourite Arabic names.
Annabelle Christi - Annabelle is quite nice. Christi is average.
Mario Alberto - Mario has never been one of my favourites. I think Albert is much better than Alberto.
Victoria Michelle - Victoria is very nice, plus Michelle is a very nice semi-classic.
Jordan Anthony - Jordan is just bleh. Anthony is a nice and humble name.
Thomas Ryan - Thomas is pretty good. I don't hold anything against Ryan.
Luca Elias - The best male combo by far. Luca is a Italian classic, while Elias sounds great, and has a great deal of history behind it. I have nothing, but praise for the parents.
