1) This is my daughter, Ivy Elizabeth.
You say: Hi Ivy.
You think: I like Elizabeth. I never liked Ivy. I'd suggest them to be in reversed order.
2) This is my son, Thomas Noel. The middle name is after his great-grandfather.
You say: Hi Thomas, what a nice name.
You think: It really is. He's lucky! His great-grandfather could have been named Alfred or Earl.
3) This is my daughter, Adela Sofia.
You say: Hi Adela.
You think: Adela is cute and Sofia isn't bad either. I prefer Sophie though.
4) This is my son, Elijah Romany. He goes by Eli.
You say: Hi Eli, love your nickname.
You think: Elijah who goes by Eli. There's nothing wrong about that but Romany? Well, it's only his middle name. He doesn't have to tell anybody, right?
5) And this is his twin brother, Isaiah Sorin.
You say: Hi Isaiah, do you have a nickname?
You think: I hope he has one, a cute one. Otherwise people will think he's 90 when reading the name!
6) This is my daughter, Callista Azure. She goes by Calla.
You say: Hi Calla.
You think: Bravo for the nickname here. Callista always makes me think of an anorexic-looking actress, but maybe that's just me. I LOVE Azure as a middle name!
7) This is my son, Matthias Asher.
You say: Hi Matthias.
You think: Nice name. Love Matthias, Asher is not my fave but it's ok and they go well together.
8) This is my son, Gabriel Ronen.
You say: Hi Gabriel.
You think: That's ok. I don't think it's very special but it will be easy for him to grow up with that name. That's what matters.
9) This is my daughter, Vienne Maria.
You say: Hi Vienne.
You think: Don't like Vienne. Vienna would have been a little better. Maria is nice.
10) This is my son, Xavier Caius. He usually goes by Xave.
You say: Hi Xave, do you like to rap?
You think: Hmm. Caius? Not my style but that is not going to bis his major problem. Xavier is a nice name but especially with that nickname, it has a rapper image for me. There's nothing wrong about that, if he likes it but what if he's going to be a doctor? I don't know...

Funny...
... I've been debating between Vienna rather than Vienne, and Sofie rather than Sofia. What do you think?
Oh, and actually my grandfather's name is Clair. Haha, Clair Leon. But after talking with him (I'm only 13, no kids for another 7 years probably lol, but he's got Alzheimer's and is fading fast. I'd like to name a son after him but will have to come up with ideas now, while I can) he told me that all the gender confusion while growing up wasn't worth it. Thomas Clair sounded nice to me, but he said he'd rather that I didn't. But he hates his middle name, always wanted it to be backwards - Noel rather than Leon - so there we go! Thomas Noel! I dunno if the future husband will go for it, but at least I'll know what name to use is the opportunity arises.
Okay, I'm done. But really, I do want your opinions. What do you think?

1) This is my daughter, Ivy Elizabeth.
You say: Very nice.
You think: I would have tried to find another middle name, but I love Ivy and Ivy Elizabeth is almost irresistibly nice.
2) This is my son, Thomas Noel. The middle name is after his great-grandfather.
You say: Oh nice, is he Thomas or Tommy or Tom?
You think: Thomas and all its nicknames are good. Noel is nice for honoring.
3) This is my daughter, Adela Sofia.
You say: Oh cool!
You think: Hey that reminds me a lot of Adelle from btn. Anyway Adela is a wonderful name! I'm so glad there's someone else named it!
4) This is my son, Elijah Romany. He goes by Eli.
You say: Hello Eli.
You think: Eli's neat. Romany is kind of silly.
5) And this is his twin brother, Isaiah Sorin.
You say: Oh, good set.
You think: Isaiah is good. But Sorin?
6) This is my daughter, Callista Azure. She goes by Calla.
You say: Oh, that's interesting!
You think: That IS interesting. I approve.
7) This is my son, Matthias Asher.
You say: Very handsome.
You think: Well, it's cute. Matthias is nice. And it could be worse.
8) This is my son, Gabriel Ronen.
You say: Oh, nice name!
You think: Gabriel is good. Ronen is kind of gross.
You say: Very nice.
You think: I would have tried to find another middle name, but I love Ivy and Ivy Elizabeth is almost irresistibly nice.
2) This is my son, Thomas Noel. The middle name is after his great-grandfather.
You say: Oh nice, is he Thomas or Tommy or Tom?

You say: Oh, nice name!
You think: Gabriel is good. Ronen is kind of gross.
1) This is my daughter, Ivy Elizabeth.
You say: Oh, hi Ivy!
You think: It's a nice combo, but I'm not too happy about Elizabeth.
2) This is my son, Thomas Noel. The middle name is after his great-grandfather.
You say: Hello, Thomas! That's wonderful!
You think: I like Thomas, but I'm not really digging Noel.
3) This is my daughter, Adela Sofia.
You say: Oh, how pretty!
You think: *thinks of Adelle* That really is a nice name.
4) This is my son, Elijah Romany. He goes by Eli.
You say: Hi, Eli! Wow, I didn't even realize that rhymed until just now...
You think: I prefer Elijah with no nickname. I prefer Roman.
5) And this is his twin brother, Isaiah Sorin.
You say: Isaiah & Elijah? How nice.
You think: I like the pronounciation SOAR-in best, although I don't think that's the correct pronounciation. I don't really like how they (Elijah, Isaiah) both end in -ah, but at least they sound different.
6) This is my daughter, Callista Azure. She goes by Calla.
You say: I really like your name, Calla. You're a lucky girl.
You think: If only she'd go by Callista! It's a wonderful combo, and Callista is a wonderful name!
7) This is my son, Matthias Asher.
You say: Hello, Matthias!
You say: Oh, hi Ivy!
You think: It's a nice combo, but I'm not too happy about Elizabeth.

6) This is my daughter, Callista Azure. She goes by Calla.
You say: I really like your name, Calla. You're a lucky girl.
You think: If only she'd go by Callista! It's a wonderful combo, and Callista is a wonderful name!

You say: Hello, Matthias!
