I really dislike the name—not because it’s a “boy’s name” (I like boy names on girls), but because it’s dated to the 2010s and the -t sound at the end of both names doesn’t flow well.

Still, congrats to them!

I'm a fan of the name and also the TV show. However, I very much dislike the name on a girl. Whenever viewing an episode, I always wished that in the back of my mind that the writers would have used another name. I've always thought that "Allison\Alison\Alyson."benefited the character for some reason.
Great show, just a shame that some seem misconstrued into believing that Elliot is feminine or could work on a girl because of a character. I mean come on... \:<

Margaret: Dated but still lovely
John Romeo: Dislike Romeo. I think it's associated too much with…shakespear obviously and has likely teasing potential. (Though probably more with it being a first name I would think)

---

Novah Patrick: Dislike Novah, the spelling and wouldn't even imagine the name on a boy.
Lochlan Alexander: Very nice and would be even more if the original spelling would have been used.
Makayla Rose: Dislike Makayla. The combination has a good flow though despite 'Rose' being such a filler name

---

Carter George: Decent. However, I think 'George Carter' would have sounded better

---

Ryann Lynn: Eww. Masculine and poor combination flow.

So modernly traditional with its own unique twist! Sorry but I really love this selection.

Ellen would have been so much better :( I'm not a fan of Elliot even for a boy, but on a girl I REALLY dislike it. Margaret isn't my thing either, but very nice as a MN.

---

John is a bit boring and bland, I love Romeo though.

---

Novah Patrick makes me wonder if this is a boy or a girl. Novah Margaret and Elliot Patrick would have been clear :P
Lochlan Alexander is okay
Makayla Rose is not my thing

---

Carter George, even though I'm not a fan at all of Carter it does seem he's got the best name of the bunch. I don't like George, but it's okay as a MN

---

Ryann Lynn looks nice, but doesn't sound nice to me. I assume this is a girl? Are they saying it with the emphasis on ANN? Or just like Ryan with a different spelling?

---

I'm sorry I couldn't be more positive about your family's names...

Pity they didn't go retro and name her Margaret Elliot. Elliot, especially when it isn't a family ln, is really unpleasant on a girl; more so because it originates with, I presume, a character in a TV series.

---

Also, Elliot and Margaret rhyme annoyingly.

Your family likes make names on girls, eh? I really dislike Elliott and Ryann on girls.

I don't like Elliot on a girl. Ellen would have been so much nicer. I like John Romeo and I guess it goes well with Elliot but it sounds like they have two boys.
I prefer the spelling Lochlan over Lachlan because I prefer the LOKH pronunciation over the LAKH one. Although I only like it if it's pronounced like the proper pronounciation of Loch. I think it flows well with Alexander.
I don't really like any of the other names.

But Elliot from Scrubs name was a joke, her father wanted a boy.

---

Elliot on a girl is awful. Honestly the only good (first) name in the bunch is John, Lochlan is close, but it's misspelled.

I'm sorry but I hate Elliot for a girl. I was expecting a boy when I read Elliot and then it was followed by Margaret. I feel like those names really clash.
I would have loved seeing Ellen used instead and John and Ellen would make a lovely sibset. John Romeo is a very handsome combo!

Anyway, congratulations to the parents and their families!
