If you had kids during your awkward naming phase and/or childhood, what might have they have been called?

If I had a kid when I was still a kid they would have been named something like:

Lanay (was set on this name for a future daughter from ages 8 to 11)
Cassie (was also a top favorite for childhood)
Carlie
Janie (not Jane)
Joanie
Jodie
Polly
Macie
Marcie
Trudy
Jenny
Maddie
Debbie
Katie
Nellie (was really into 2 syllable ie/y ending girl names
Sarabella
Sistine
Sissy
Haley
Kaley
Ava
Tonya
Rachel
Victoria
Cynthia
Shayla
Lori
Raven
Amber
Angelina
Paulina
Melina
December "Dee / Deedee"
September "Cici"
Savannah
Vanessa
Justine
Georgette
Tara
Amaya in my late teens
Amoria
Casey (F)
Agalynn (not a typo, was supposed to be a smoosh of Adelynn and Agatha)
Mirabelle
Orabelle

Kyle
Conner
Parker
Brayden
Anakin
Tristan
Milo
Edward
Bryce
Zackery
Bailey
Wesley
Weston
Damion
Desmond
Jackson
Darin
Trevor
Grayson
Brian
Carter
Cody
Riley (was super team Riley for a while)

My taste alternated between names of adults who I liked (Tonya, Lanay, etc.) Cutesy (Cassie), and Popular and Trendy (Brayden). Some of these are directly from old lists and some pulled from an approximation of what I was into back then. Some of these are totally fine and some of these make me cringe.

Please rate my "Names I would Use" list & "Backup Favorites" list. Feel free to rate some of my other lists too if you have the time.
