Nan and Nay (girls)
Um... no, I don;t like these. They're very strange.
Kathy and Shelly
Not too horrible, I don't like Shelly though.
Cathe and Cande (e has a y sound)
No! That's just bad! Candy is bad enough. Cathy is OK, but with those spellings that's awful!
Patrick and Gerard
I like Patrick, but not Gerard.
Orval and Orvetta
Um... are they a boy and a girl? I think they're too similar and not my taste at all.
Donald and Marianne
I don't really like Donald (I always think of Old MacDonald, but not MacDonald's, which is kind of weird.) Marianne is nice.
Karen and Kenneth
Not bad.
Solomon Jr and Cicily (Sonny and Cissy)
I think the JR part is very American and Soloman sounds too Biblish to me, but it would be OK for someone very Christian. I have a friend called Cicely and I prefer that spelling, but it's a nice name.
Wayland and Wyatt (my cousins babies)
Sorry, I hate both of those names. Especially Wyatt.
Robin and Ronald (Rob and Ron)
I like Robin, especially Robyn for a girl. Ronald I don't really like.
Garrett and Klausine (boy and girl)
No, not my taste. Klausine just sounds way too made-up for me (don't know if it is or not). I do quite like Claudine though, which is similar. Garrett makes me think of Lesley Garrett, a famous opera singer.
Crissy and Carrie
Chrissie I don't mind, if it's short for Christina or something, but I hate that spelling. Carrie I don't mind, but I don't love it.
John and Thomas (Johnny and Tommy)
OK, very common names but there's nothing wrong with them.
They're my opinions. Sorry for being so negative!
