I think they’re hideous. I have no favorite.
They sound like they were created for a game by a bunch of twelve-year-old girls at a slumber party.
They probably think Ellevyn is very clever.
It isn't.

It isn't.
It seems like their theme was named ending in the “-ehn” sound. Kerrigan I actually like, but hate the nn Kerry, and on a girl it’s even worse.
I think the worst thing about this family is their nicknames.

Coby, Emmelyn Trinity, and Madigan Grace are okay. The rest are awful.
Some of the names would have been unexceptional if they weren't part of the sibling set. I guess even the parents couldn't stand all the 'n' endings on the daily and gave them all nicknames. Why didn't they call their first two Kerry and Grady if those are the names that they wanted to use? Why not make Kenny short for Kenneth? Kendon is too close to tendon.
If I were to stick to a similar style as the original set, but diversify the endings...
Kerensa Ruth "Kerry"
Grady Matthew
Beorn Michael
Cassidy Susannah
Kenneth Thomas
Dallas Patrick
Carden David
Mairéad Grace
Roderick Vincent
Emma Therese
Everild Noelle
Conall James

The only ones I can face at all are Michael, Thomas, Patrick, David and, er, I suppose Noelle. Why anyone would stick a K on to Adrian and then claim it's feminine, I just don't know. Graden and Carden and Rowden are appalling, together or separately. Emmelyn and Ellevyn aren't even funny.
My 12, using their initials and ignoring mns, could be:
Kaitlin
Graham
Brian
Karen
Keith
David
Conrad
Marianne
Robin
Emily
Eleanor
As for Coby, I'll go for Cedric (m) or Cecily (f). If it's a nn, perhaps the full name might be Jacob? Assuming it's a male name; who knows?

They are, as a set, ghastly.
Most of the middle names are okay.
Emmelyn is the only halfway decent first name.
