I started to answer this . . .
. . . but I didn't get to the end of 'B' before I got to annoyed to continue.
First off - these names are words, and their meanings can be found at www.dictionary.com, www.answers.com, or www.etymonline.com:
Aster
Chappel (Chapel)
Cedar
Caillou
Friday
Nouvel
Pirate
Poem
Parish
Petal
Rogue
Rebel
Rumer (Rumour)
Ransom
Sainte (Saint)
Sonnet
Tryst
Torrent
Tripp (Tryp) (Trip)
Trout
Thorne (Thorn)
Tuesday
Thistle
Thursday
Vesper
Whisper
Whysp (Wysp) (Wisp)
These names are places, and you can probably find out about them at www.answers.com:
Albany
Astoria
Aragon
Boston
Calgary
Dorset
These names are so similar to existing names that they shouldn't have been an issue:
Dierdra = Deirdre
Dillen = Dylan
Dru = Drew
Euen = Euan
Eadoin = Eadaoin
Eadye (Eadie, Eydie) = Edie
Finnean = Finnian
Grette = Greta
Ilias = Ilyas
Kayne = Kane
Kaie = Kay
Keene (Koine) = Keane
Lucias = Lucius
Launcelot = Lancelot
Larke = Lark
Owyn = Owen
Selia = Celia
Taite = Tate
Teag (Teig) = Teague
Would someone else like to handle the ones that are actually obscure names or surnames?

I know Thorne is a surname.
And it seems Cedar is a real name

I wasn't being rude for the fun of it, May. I was frustrated that you didn't appear to have done any research for yourself.
It really is annoying when people ask us to do a lot of work - and asking us to analyse 130 names is a lot of work - without having made any attempt whatsoever to research the names themselves.
If I'm reading your post correctly, you're asking whether those words are ever actually used as names, and whether those spelling variations are real variations?
As a first step, I suggest that you Google all of those names to see whether any individuals with those names come up. That's a quick way to find out whether they're in frequent use. That should eliminate all of the place names and surnames and most of the word names, and leave you with a list of word name spelling variations and obscure names to track down.
