They are okay.

They're not bad, but I don't really like them.I prefer Olivia to Alivia. Paired with Alaina, it looks like they spelled it that way just so they would match, which is silly. Grace is bland and overused as a middle name, and I've never cared for the sound of it.

Truly horrendous and unnecessarily frivolous...Alivia and Alaina are unforgivable corruptions of Olivia and Elena (which would be totally fab as a twinset), IMO. Grace is an overdone middle name and the 'Y' in Elyse simply looks pretentious.

I LOVE Alivia spelled that way! Alaina goes well I think, but not Elyse. Maybe spelled different. Alivia Grace and Alaina Elise?

Olivia Grace would have been preferable. Alaina Elyse is too sing-songy for my taste, nor do I care for either name individually.

Alivia and Alaina just look rather contrived to me - made up. I love the sound of Alaina but now that I know that's how Elena is pronounced, I'll always prefer that spelling. I adore Grace and Elise (not the Y spelling Elyse) so if I were to re-do these combos it would be Elena Grace and Olivia Elise. :)So classic aren't I! :)

Alivia Grace - I much prefer Olivia, though the combo is very nice.Alaina Elyse - I don't like Alaina, but Elyse is sweet.

Alivia Grace - I don't like Alivia, but I like Grace.
Alaina Elyse - Alaina is OK, Elyse is OK. I think that Ava Grace would sound better.

I would like Olivia Grace. Alivia just looks wrong to me. Elena is pretty. I don't like Alaina, though. Elyse / Elise is too similar to Elena / Alaina for me.

I love the middle names, can't stand the first names.
