If you could name your kids anything, forgetting whether or not you know someone with that name, forgetting popularity, forgetting whether or not the name is "trendy" or "weird" or "kr8yv", what would your top 10 names for each gender be?  (Include middle names if you so choose, but it is not necessary).

Girls:
1 Gianna Leigh (I'd use this anyway.. and Gianna will definitely be my babys name if baby is a girl)
2 Natalie Olivia (not sure if I'd use it or not. I love it.. despite it being popular.)
3 Madelyn Paige (same as above)
4 Caitey Lynn (I wouldn't use, although I love it, out of respect for my family. There is a Katie on my moms side and we have nothing to do with my moms side of the family.. and everyone thinks of her when they hear Caitey)
5 Charlee no mn (I probably wouldn't use Charlee because "Charlie is a boys name")
6 Erin Aubrey (I don't know if I'd use it or not.. I like Erin but then again it just seems too simple. And Aubrey.. I won't use if I still live here because it could and probably would be shortened to Aubbie.. and people would assume I did so because I'm an Auburn fan-and I'm not)
7 Reagan Addison (I wouldn't use it because Addison is "trendy/popular" and people always ask "named after Ronald Reagan?")
8 Madison Ema (Both are too trendy/popular.. so I wouldn't use it. But I love it.)
9 Zaria Lia (People think it's too weird.. so I probably wouldn't use it)
10 California Austin ("CALIFORNIA? what? are you serious?" lol.. no I wouldn't use it because of that.. but I still love it.)

Boys:
1 Elliott Adrian (I won't use Elliott.. at least for now because my family doesn't like it at all)
2 Landon Miles (This I will use.. and what baby will be if baby is a boy)
3 Gabriel Daniel (I don't know)
4 Nicolas Sage (Nicolas Cage. I won't use it.. but I think it's adorable and would still consider both names with another fn or mn)
5 Micah ? (I would use this)
6 Matthew Parker (too common first name and a lot of people don't like parker.. so I don't know if I'd use it or not)
7 Denver Sebastian (I definitely wouldn't name my child Sebastian because I had a fish named Sebastian.. but I still love the name. And Denver.. I don't know, I might still use it as a mn.)
8 Raleigh Ari (I may use it.. but I don't know. I'd have to have more opinions on it before I dod)
9 Emerson ? (I probably won't use because people here think "Emerson Drive?" and a lot of people don't see it as a fn)
10 Zander ? (probably won't use.. just because)
