Thoughts:
Edna May - that's not a name you hear on little ones often! I can't say I'm sorry it's not more popular, I'm not sure Edna is quite ready for the
Khaleesi Lynneah - These are the people who would have named their kids Queenie 20 years ago. Title names are dumb to begin with, but imaginary title names are just freaking stupid.
I like:
James Daniel
Edward John IV - I dislike Juniors, and a fourth is even worse but at least it's a nice name.
Roman Angelo

Ok, I like Marlowe. The combo's cool too.
I don't mind Khaleesi getting normalized as a name. The combo's dumb, though. Did they want Linnea to look more like Nevaeh?
Cadence is one of my favorite neo-normal names.
Not bouncing up and down about the boys. Darius is cool to see, but I don't understand Juandy at all. Roman Angelo is nice and romantic. The rest of them are just fifty shades of gray, which in me-speak means "fifty shades of boring." The phrase got stuck in my head and now I can't seem to get it through to my subconscious that it doesn't mean what it seems to beg to mean. Oh well.

My Thoughts
Edna - I know older sounding names are coming back, but this is the first Edna I've seen.
Marlowe - I don't really like this spelling, but I'm surprised how much I like the name.
Lanessa - This is new to me - it reminds me of Larissa, which I like ok.
Mya Jude - I like the use of Jude as a girl's mn.
Clarinda - another new one to me. It sounds like a mash up of Clarissa and Linda, neither of which I really like.
Tegan - This really surprised me on a boy. I like it for a girl and I guess it could work for a boy too.
Leland - Another older sounding that might be making a comeback...? I know there is also a band with this name so maybe that influenced it.
