Gorgeous lists.

---

Vilhelmine- the only one I might consider unusable, due to have a similar sound/look to "villain." Though "Violet"'s only a letter off from "violent" as is getting increasingly popular so, maybe.
Astrid- great name, I like it's underused ending for girls
Freja- also great
Sybilla- a favorite of mine
Margareta- pretty, a little flowery for my taste
Katariina- ditto, I really like Katrine though- I find the sound more strong/interesting
Cecilia- very pretty, but again I prefer Cecile to get rid of some of the frills
Melisande- very cool
Marcella- Even though its nms, I really like this name for others
Eleonora- great name

Boys:
Hendrik- a little "sporty" feeling in the US due to the truck
Johannes- wonderful name
Niklaus- also a big fan of this one
Rudolf (Rudi)- I admire someone who used this, I'd Rudy the more intuitive nickname spelling for a boy
Leif- great name
Gunnar- I fear that English speakers would say it the same as "gunner"
Feliks- great name
Sven- My favorite on the list, so underused
Otto- good solid name
August- trendier than anything else on here! but it's a nice name with good nickname potential
