Re: More online sibsets!

1. These names seem mismatched. Esme reads old, and on a baby it's like a frumpy-cool hipster name. Scarlett is glamorous, and I could see it on a young kid (but for some reason the extra t makes it seem too 'mature'? Like, a kid could be names Scarlet, but Scarlett is like.. too flirty-looking to be a kid's name for some reason.) Evangeline is frilly, fancy, and trendy; I could see it fitting with Scarlett. And then there's Indie which doesn't fit at all. Indie should be the younger tomboy cousin. Unless it's short for Indira? Indira would be a good bridge between Esme and Scarlett & Evangeline.
My version:
Indira
Esmeralda
Scarlet(t)
Evangeline
2. Wait, the kid is actually named "Trendy"? That's terrible!
Zaylee is... trendy, and silly but not bad compared to the others.
Sunny is cute but should be a nickname.
Truly is hard seltzer (yes of course it's also a word, but most people will think of the seltzer).
Journey is the best of these.
They all sound like they go together at least?
My version:
Tierney
Zayna
Sunniva
Verity
Journey
3. I feel like one parent was kre8yv and the other parent liked 'normal' names? But even within the 'normal' names there's a pretty wild mix. You've got young, popular names like Jace and Asher, and then old grandpa names like Dale and Eugene (plus they used Eugene AND Gene?) and why do a few of of them have 2 middle names but most just have one? Maybe they're stepsiblings?
-I can't even tell what Crizman is supposed to sound like. It looks like a boy name but Shaye looks girly.
-Jordan Lynn Faye is bad, Lynn is obviously there because "if it's just Jordan nobody will know she's a GIRL so I want to call her Jordan Lynn! Because sticking Lynn after something makes it girly!" But then they also stuck Faye on the end which doesn't fit with either Jordan or Lynn.
-I actually like Alyce, although I'd prefer either Alice or Alyse, but you're never going to make it work with Cadence just by sticking Marie in there. Cadence Marie or Alyce Marie would be fine.
-Caleb Alan is okay, Jace Michael and Jessalyn Grace are okay but the first names are a little trendy.
-Silas, Christopher, Charles, Oliver, and Asher are good names but those combos don't work.
-I don't like Thomas but there's nothing objectively wrong with it
-Abel is a weird name to use IRL because it's just associated with getting murdered
-Eugene, Gene, and Dale are not ready to come back!
-Dawn is dated too but I don't mind it. Rowyn is a silly spelling.
Assuming the first one is a girl, here's my version (ignoring the fact that too many of them start with C):
Crimson Shay
Alyce Fae (or Alice Faye, Alice Fae, Alys Fae, Alyse Fae)
Caleb Alan
James Michael
Cadence Marie
Jessica Grace
Silas Edmund
Christopher Tam (or Tamlin)
Triplet 1: Oliver Damon
Triplet 2: Asher Gabriel
Triplet 3: Charles Benjamin
