These names are my all time favourites:

Boys:
Daniel
Jason

Girls:
Zoè-Claire
Victoria

And these are two names I really hate: Leonie (female) and Elias (male).

Your taste in names is a little unique, considering Daniel, Jason, and Victoria are a little older, while Zoe and Claire are more trendy now-a-days. Interesting :) I love Claire, I don't like Zoe and I really don't get the hyphenating. What made you choose that?

[ladylovespink.livejournal.com]

I like the sound of the double name "Zoè-Claire". Zoè sounds friendly and Claire has something grounded I think. I never really thought about that hyphenate though.

Daniel - that's my fave boys name for so long now. It's classic and modern at the same time I think.
Jason - I don't know why I just like the name. I also think Jay is a nice nickname.
Victoria - that's a strong name I think. Also I like the nickname Vicky.

Maybe I have a strange taste but I never really liked all those trendy names.

Or the nickname could be Tori. More options are always great!

When I say Zoe-Claire it sounds like eclair in the middle so I don't like. I do love the name Zoe, but not a big fan of Claire.

Ew. I hate those, too. Good thing I had never heard of them.
The girls names are super cute though.

I thought Zoe had two dots on top of the "e".

Depends what country you are in. It's a hiatus for the dutch, while it's Zoé for the French!

Zoé or Zoè? OP says one thing, you say another, and I speak zero French. I know one indicates emphasis and the other modifies the sound of the E, but I can never remember which is which.

[th3-unicorn.livejournal.com]

I'm fluent in French, I can assure you that when the accent falls on the very last letter it's always like this --> é

examples:
mère
père
succès

café
étudié
mangé

the è is a broad 'eh' sound, the é is sort of an 'ay' sound, and in French the first can't be used as the last sound of a word.

Victoria's one of my favorites as well.

And ironically enough, my husband's name is Daniel and his brother's name is Jason. :*)

Hello :)

Daniel is a good name: lovely but strong and mature as well. My husband's name is Daniel and it's also my son's middle name (James Daniel).

Victoria is nice. I've a beloved great aunt by that name.

(This forum is interesting since I'm sometimes curious to see what people are considering for names since my family has always been interested in the etymology of names. We tend toward passing along family first names, and our family names are pretty traditional.)

just remember a lot of people would pronounce that Zo-ehh instead of zo-ey.
