your thoughts?
I'd like to hear what you think about the following names. As you can see, it is much easier for us to think of girl names than boy names. Any suggestions for either would be much appreciated.

The baby's last name will be hyphenated, two syllables total.

Girls:

Julie
Iris
Lucia
Kara
Samantha
Scarlett
Simone
Jolie
Milla
Margot
Amelie
Gabrielle

Boys:

Oliver
Owen
Lucas
Sebastian

I like Iris and Amelie. I don't like Gabrielle because I hate the nn Gabby. I think Scarlett and Kara sound like stripper names imho. I like all of the boys names, in this order... 1.Lucas 2.Sebastian 3. Owen 4. Oliver.

I like Julie, Lucia, Kara (but prefer Cara), Samantha, Scarlett, and Amelie. Gabrielle, Margot, Simone, and Iris are all okay, but not my style. I'd like Margo more spelled this way, since the t always makes me think of "maggots." Jolie is way too Angelina Jolie for my tastes.

For boys, I love Oliver and Lucas, and I sort of like Sebastian. Owen isn't my style.

Suggestions:
Lia (either on its own or as a nickname for Amelia or Cecilia)
Bianca
Aimee
Madeline
Genevieve
Josephine
Caroline
Adrienne
Juliet
Jocelyn
Lydia
Claire

Nico
Jonas
Asa
Adrian
Colin
Leo
Theo
Neville
Curtis
August (Gus)
Hugh
Graham
Elias
Elliot
Silas
Philip
Ezra
Reid
Liam
Seamus
Ian
Gareth
Linus

Samantha - Don't mind it, so common for my generation. Not so much anymore though probably.
Scarlett - Love it

Owen - Hate it.
Lucas - Don't mind it

I like Julie, Samantha and Gabrielle. Gabrielle is my favourite out of those.
And I love all the guy's names.

[rockstargrrrlie.livejournal.com]

I like all of your girls names except Iris, Milla, and Jolie. Not too fond of Margot or Simone, either.

I love all your boys names.

My friend's daughter's name is Gabriella and they call her Gabri. So Gabby isn't always the shortened version :)
