Even as middle names I would have Clayton & Peyton in the same sibset. Mason & Dawson bother me a bit too.Harmony doesn't really go with the other middle names.However, Caroline Zinnia is perfection.

I think Caroline Zinnia is gorgeous; Amelia Harmony is also nice and both flow well.Of your boy names, the ones which flow best for me are Henry Mcalister and James Clayton. I wonder if these are family surnames; your family tree may be a great source for surname/unusual middle names, if you haven't already considered that.I very much like Graham but, for me, this combo doesn't flow very well because the ending "m" in the first name bumps into the beginning "m" of the middle name.Johanna Peyton and Elizabeth Dawson flow fine but, for me, the middles just feel like fairly commonly-used, masculine pop culture references, so they don't really lend any particular individuality or meaning or imagery, etc. to the combos (assuming they aren't family names for you).

Graham Mason - Hate the name Graham and I would personally prefer Mason to be the first name.Johanna Peyton - Dislike bothHenry Mcalister - Henry I think works but Mcalister sounds like a last nameElizabeth Dawson - Actually quite like this name although I wouldn't personally use Dawson, it does sound nice though.Caroline Zinnia - Dislike bothJames Clayton - Not my taste, but I think it is a nice name for someone else's childAmelia Harmony - Not my taste, but I think it is a nice name for someone else's child
As a sibset, I feel that Graham, Johanna and Caroline are out of place. Or those 3 work well with each other while Henry, Elizabeth, James and Amelia work well together.my opinions :)
