I hate all of them except Kenneth and Liam only if it's just a nickname for William. I like Mae as a middle name

I agree with Pink Princess, Kenneth is the only one I don't like as well, the rest are nice. I particularly love Genevieve and want to use it someday if I had 2-3 daughters. I have a few combos in mind I like that you're welcome to use as well: Genevieve Jane, Genevieve Marie-Claire, Genevieve Adele, Genevieve Aurora, Genevieve Astrid, Genevieve Odette, Genevieve Primrose. I do like Flora, Edith and Mae as well though they definitely feel like a different style and not necessarily of the same set. Though I'm not a stickler for names being perfectly matched myself. For Mae I was really into Mae Margaret for a while, or Mae Marguerite. Flora Ophelia? Edith Rosalie? My favorite of the boys is definitely Henry. Henry Michael, Henry Sebastian, Henry Dominic, Henry Jasper, Henry Tobias, etc. Liam Rupert? Liam Simon? Liam Seamus? Isaac Nathaniel? Isaac Alastair? Isaac Gregory?

Kenneth is the only one I don’t like, because it just sounds of dusty and dated to me, but not in a cool interesting way! Off the top of my head, what about these for combos: Flora Jane, Flora Celeste, Flora Daphne, Flora Katherine, Flora Miriam
Edith Phoebe, Edith Sabrina, Edith Ruby, Edith Hannah, Edith Annabelle
Mae Rosalie, Mae Juliet, Mae Josephine, Mae Louisa, Mae Tabitha
Genevieve Ruth, Genevieve Clara, Genevieve Lucy, Genevieve Iris, Genevieve Pearl Isaac Elliott, Isaac Owen, Isaac Jordan, Isaac Vincent, Isaac Jeremiah
Liam Oliver, Liam Oscar, Liam Darcy, Liam Asher, Liam Rupert
Henry Leo, Henry Samuel, Henry Max, Henry Elijah, Henry Ezra

Flora is nice enough but still feels dusty in a way. The sounds not particularly soft or pretty and it kind of drags, and of course it reminds me of Florence which then reminds me of Florence, Italy, which then makes me think of the Renaissance; and thus, Flora is a Renaissance-esque name in my mind.Edith is pretty but obviously old. It’s sturdy yet still unmistakably feminine. I’m not sure how I feel about Edie, though.Mae is flimsy and boring.I like Genevieve but dislike the obvious nickname of Jen / Jenna. Eve / Evie would be nice.Isaac is nerdy and I dislike the sound, it’s obnoxious and grating.Liam is fine but I find it excruciatingly boring.Kenneth is old and ugly. Ken & Kenny are not nice nicknames either.Henry is nice. Boring, but nice. I like the nickname Hal but not Harry.

Flora is very pretty and I have been into it lately after reading a book with a Flora in it.
Edith is nice, and I love Edie as a nickname.
Mae is a typical middle name, but it is unique as a first name
Genevieve is one of my favorites!Isaac is soooo handsome/cute
Liam is very common, but it still seems unique to me ;) d:
Kenneth isn't my favorite.
Henry is one of my favesssssssss

I really like Flora, and used Henry as a mn for my son. Edith, Genevieve, Isaac and Kenneth are all ok.

Flora: fresh, spring-like, and less popular than Florence. Flora Josephine.
Edith: it takes a particular kind of person to carry Edith well, it's a rich and heavy name. It has many positive associations, though, and Edie's cute in a youth quake way. Edith Miranda.
Mae: very Old Hollywood, not bad, but a bit trite. Mae Gwendolyn.
Genevieve: very pretty and smooth, almost too smooth, if that makes sense. Certainly better than Genowefa! Genevieve Lucy.
Isaac: traditional, but lively and bright, and it has a great meaning. Isaac Alistair.
Liam: sounds preppy and smarmy, I much prefer William. Liam Isidore.
Kenneth: I used to despise it, now I just dislike it. Kenneth itself isn't atrocious, but Ken and especially Kenny are. Kenneth Edwin.
Henry: traditional, respectable, cold. I'd nickname him Hal instead of Harry. Henry Ambrose.

Flora - very cute. Natural names are pretty lovely.Edith - not bad. It's making a comeback too, and that's positive.Mae - I prefer May, it's more flowery.Genevieve - I really like Genevieve, it's pleasant and uncommon.-Isaac - nice name.Liam - I see its appeal but it's too common...Kenneth - dated. I prefer Ken as a standalone name.Henry - cute and elegant.

All nice, except Kenneth is very middle aged man to me, and feels out of place with the others. It could definitely be worse though!Flora, Edith and Mae would be very sweet.Flora Evelyn
Edith Lucille
Mae Cecilia
Genevieve ClaireIsaac Tobias
Liam Gabriel
Kenneth Oliver
Henry Raphael

I prefer Florence to Flora, May to Mae and Jennifer to Genevieve. The only boy name I somewhat like is Kenneth; Liam is the worst of the other three.

I really like Genevieve, Mae, Flora, Isaac, and Kenneth.
I like Liam and Henry, but these two are very popular.
Edith is too old-fashioned to me and it's my least favorite of these names.
