My favorites list (especially the girls!) is too long. So I'm looking to eliminate some of them. You choose the names you like the least on the lists, and say why. Once a name gets three votes they're off.
(Remember, I am looking for something to go with Marilyn Alisandra!)
TIA!

Anwen
Arwen- Sounds like an elves name.
Aurelia
Branwen
Delilah
Georgia- More of a state's name.
Gwendolen
Ever- I'm not a fan.
Laelia
Lillia -Perfer Lily or Lilliana
Jenny-Rebecca- Don't like these to together.
Seraphina Rememinds me of a Snake. I like snakes, but still.

---

Dalton
Evander
Theodore

Well these are all the names from the list that I don't like. Some I just don't, but I gave the reason for some.

Branwen - I'm sorry, but any name that could have the nn Bran is bad in my book.

---

Ever - this isn't a name, at least, not in this form. It's incomplete... I suggest something like Everal (or Everall) nn Ever

---

Lillia - no good, looks like it was supposed to be Lillian, but someone forgot the n... for a similar sounding name that seems more complete, I'd suggest Elia or Ilia

---

Jenny-Rebecca - I'm not a fan of double barrell names to begin with... but I don't like the flow of this one, plus nn's as names (aka Jenny) is nmsaa.

---

Atticus - i'm sorry, but i just think Attic, and why name a kid after where you store your junk?!

I vote off:

---

Anwen, Arwen, and Branwen: All are akward and sound like they were made up.
Fiona- 've never liked this name. I've found it bulky and ugly and too outlandish.
Georgia- despise most state names, and this is one of them.
Gwendolen- I am partial to this name, although I prefer Guinevere.
Josephine- Same as Fiona.
Ever- This is not a name.
Laelia- This name has always been akward to pronounce. It's too Star War-sy for me.
Jenny-Rebecca- Both names are great, but not when hyphenated. It just seems like too much for a name.
Atticus- Finch...It was great on a character but it seems too old-fashioned for me.
Dalton- I can't really explain why I don't like this name. It doesn't appeal as a great name in my opinion.
Evander- Why not Evan or Alexander? Every time I hear this name I think back to the medieval time period, I'm not sure why though.

Anwen, Arwen, and Branwen - because I think the name are just to weird
Ever - Not a name
Jenny-Rebecca - because I think it sounds weird
Seraphina - I don't like this name at all

The boys names are fine

I would vote off Wyatt and Dalton because I don't like the sound of either one; plus, I have a bad association with Wyatt. Wyatt is my most hated boys name.

---

For the girls, I would vote off Jenny-Rebecca because it just seems silly to have both of those as a first name and I don't like either name. I would also vote off Anwen, Arwen, and Branwen because I don't like the -wen ending; they all sound masculine and Branwen makes me think of bran; it's just ugly. I also don't like Aurelia because it's hard for me to say and Belle because it reminds me of Days of Our Lives.

Jenny-Rebecca - Why not just Jenny, or just Rebecca? Even if you must have the two together, why hyphenate it?

---

Georgia - I just don't like this name. I hate the sound of it, and I don't like state names.

---

Wyatt - The only boy's name that I really don't like on your list. I just don't like the 'Why' sound at the beginning.

Ok, I vote off:
Anwen, Arwen and Branwen- because I don't like the sound (especially Branwen, it makes me think of bran, and I seems to have a dislike for Br- names )
Laelia- because I'm not sure how to prn. it. It seems very awkward to me (sorry)
Jenny-Rebecca- I generally don't like hyphenated names, and this one is very awkward to say

---

Oliver- I don't like it. Hard to explain why, I just don't

---

Thats it for the boys actually. I like the rest :)

I vote off:
Anwen -I just find it ugly
Arwen -Made up
Branwen -I find it really harsh. I like Bronwen, though.
Delilah -Trashy and slutty
Georgia -I loathe the name
Gwendolen -I find the "gw" sound really, really ugly
Ever -Not a name
Lillia -Lilia is SO much nicer
Jenny-Rebecca -What is this? Why the hyphen and nicknamey Jenny?

---

Atticus -Finch, and it reminds me of attics
Dalton -Ugly surname
Wyatt -Ugly abrupt surname

---

Edit: Sorry, misunderstood the game
