1. Gloria - It's okay, but definitely not a favorite. I know two Glorias, and they are great people, I'm just...not a fan of the name.
2. Sophie - Love love love Sophie. I'd use Sophia, with Sophie as a nn, just because Sophie sounds kind of cutesy and childish. It CAN work on an adult, but Sophia sounds a lot more sophisticated, I think, and Sophie could always be a nickname.
3. Celine - I don't like it; it'll always make me think of Celine Deon.
4. Valerie - It's okay, but makes me think of the bitchy girls in 90s teen movies/tv shows for some reason.
5. Melanie - Like it, but not a favorite; it seems kind of dated, like an 80s/90s name.
6. Lucy - Love it.
7. Aurora - I don't like it at all; I mean, I just don't think it's a very pretty name.
8. Rebecca - It's okay, but I prefer Rebekah.
9. Emily - Love love love this name, despite the popularity.
10. Kiana - NMS
11. Zaida - NMS
12. Kaia - It's okay, but NMS
13. Anna - Love love love.
14. Hope - I don't really like 'virtue' names (Hope, Grace, Patience, etc.), but this one I can tolerate.
15. Rose - Love.
16. Eliza - One of my absolutely favorites.
17. Gabriella - NMS
18. Kassie - I prefer Cassie. Kassie looks kind of trashy to me. I'd use it as a nickname, though -- Cassandra, maybe? Cassie is way too childish/nicknamey for a given name.
19. Melody - NMS.
20. Kathy - Okay as a nickname for Katherine or Kathleen, but not on it's own. I prefer Kate, but it's okay. Just definitely as a nickname.
21. Min - NMS
22. Julie - Like, but I prefer Julia.
23. Molly - Love, but I prefer it as a nickname for Margaret.
24. Shaianne - Hate this name, no matter how it's spelled. It sounds like a stripper's name.

1. Caleb - One of my favorites.
2. Connor - Too trendy.
3. Danny - Love it, but definitely as a nickname for Daniel.

Interesting spelling: Shaianne
I love that name too, but I have only ever seen it as Cheyenne, and I think I prefer that spelling.

I'm the opposite of you, I always have a longer list of boys names than girls names.
