Taking....
Deon, because it sounds like a pimp's name to me for some odd reason; Ethan, because it's so popular right now and sounds like a bratty kid anyway; Amber & Lacey because they sound like strippers :b

Taking-Corey, because it's got that "trendy" sound
Brook, it's too girly sounding, I mean put an "e" on the end and it is a girls nameAnais, just don't like anything about this name
Findley, just one of those names that sounds all unisex and again quite a trendy sound

Eliminating:Oscar - I've never liked this name at all. It's always reminded me of Oscar Meyer hotdogs. I don't care for the sound of it either.Leith - I just don't care for it. It sounds like someone saying trying to "leaf". Then again, I'm not really sure how to pronounce it. I'm assuming that it's pronounced like Keith with an L. Milla - I really don't like the way it sounds. Carys - This seems old ladyish and reminds me of the word "carrots". I also have a bad association with someone by this name.
