Love: Grace, Olivia, Ava
The rest are alright with me, except Rowan & Luca seem masculine to me.

Luca for me right now is a guilty pleasure because part of me really likes it but part of me is still going 'no, it's a boys name' Soo.yeah.

I really like: Grace and Mattea.

I don't dislike any of the others, they're all good names but the ones above are the ones I really like.

Oh except I'm not crazy about Alexa or Ashlyn.

I like Margaret and Emily. I also like Ava, even if it is trendy right now (Emily is too, I guess). Rowan and Luca are good names, but only on boys - especially Luca. It's definitely a masculine name.

I like Grace, Margaret, Olivia, Alexa

A few of the others feel like they suit boys better to me

I love Grace, Margaret, Ava, and Emily.

Mattea reminds me too much of the boy's name Matteo, Luca/Luka is a rather common boy's name, and I'll never think of Taylor or Riley as unisex; they're both too masculine to me.

Olivia, Alexa, and Madison are all okay, just...trendy-sounding. I like Olivia, though, it's just VERY popular.

I don't like Rowan or Ashlyn at all.

I think if you are going to use the nickname Maddie then Madeline is a lot prettier than Madison.

Grace (Gracie) - Love Grace and the nn. Love love love it.
Margaret (Maggie) - Maggie is my doggies name but I still like the name for a person.
Madison (Maddie) - Most people I know named Madison hate being called Maddie but I do love the name Madison.
Olivia - Like the name but it's really popular
Alexa - don't like this. My neices name was Alexis before she passed away and I didn't even like Alexis on her. I called her by her middle name.
Riley - I prefer Rileigh and prefer it on a boy.
Ashlyn - Don't like this one
Ariana - Don't like this one
Taylor - Boy name imo
Ava - So classy. Love it, but way popular.
Emily - Like this name but very over used
Mattea - Don't like. Have a friend named Matteo.
Rowan - Boys name imo - don't really like it for either however
Luca - Same as above but I kinda like it for a boy

Luca is a boy's name!
But I like Grace, Olivia (too trendy), and Rowan.

I love Grace, Olivia, Ashlyn, Ariana, and Rowan. Grace, Olivia, and Ariana are very, very feminine, I think, while Ashlyn and Rowan are a little more flexible.

The only names on your list I really don't like are Riley and Mattea. I'm iffy on Luca, since it's traditionally a boy name, but a lot of names eventually cross over, and it wouldn't be awful on a girl--it would just take getting used to.

Grace as a first name is okay, as long as Gracie isn't used as the actually first name. I hate that. I like Margaret, Ariana, and Mattea.
