Iris Aurelia - Absolutely stunning.
Seraphine Lilac - I wonder if Seraphina Lilac would flow better, because the "een" and "l" sounds sort of run into each other. But otherwise pretty.
Dahlia Juliette - Pretty, but very "l-heavy" (and both in the first syllable).
Giselle Ariadne - Beautiful.
Thea Melisande - Ditto. May I also suggest Téa Mélisande?
Azalea Camille - Don't generally like Azalea, but the combo flows. What about Zinnia Camille?
Leta Fleur - I think Leda Fleur looks nicer, but it's still a pretty name.
Veda Naomi - Very nice; strong yet elegant.
Milena Tess - Pretty. I think of Tess as the universal feminine middle name (more than Marie).
Amara Celeste - Pretty; very soft.
Lucian Matthias - Neither name is my style.
Archer Hadrian - It's posh, but I don't mind posh at all.
Julian Fox - Nice. Fox is a cool, underused name.
Orion Thomas - I really like this one!
Asa Sebastian - Both names go very well together.
Nicolas Zephyr - I like Nico as a nickname, but the 's' and 'Z' run into each other.
Leo / Leonidas - The latter is probably my favorite "full" name for Leo, though I think I like Leo best on his own.
Maximus - Gladiator. Sorry, that's all I can think of... Well, that and "gluteus maximus." :-(
Evander - Once I can shake the Evander Holyfield association, it's a very usable name.
Altogether, you have some really nice combos!
