Lets get some critiques going! (A game)

[pythianlegume7.livejournal.com]

Okay here are the rules. Post your favorites in the comments, however many names or comboes that you want. However, if you post, you must respond to at least THREE other peoples' names by replying to their comment (at least three, but you can do as many as you want). If you're one of the first three to post, come back later when more people have posted in order to reply. Try to keep it so that each of the comments have an equal amount of replies, so some people don't get all of the critiques.

If you don't like getting your name choices critiqued, don't post your names :). You can still respond to other peoples' names if you want. Obviously naming is a personal taste thing; still, I like hearing what other people think of my choices and I'm sure other people do too. After all, its what this community is for! Just try not to be offensive or get offended too easily.

I hope this isn't too complicated, I don't think I worded myself very well...

EDIT TO ADD: You don't need to respond to each of the names if you don't want to. You can do a general comment if you'd prefer. Its up to you!

These are awesome. I don't think I have seen a set of names where I've liked every single name. The only ones I wouldn't use myself are Juliet, Beatrice, and Robert.

[rowan-belle.livejournal.com]

I really like these! Lilac is very unique and I love Harper and Jane. Tessa's cute and Eliza's one of my favorites. Love Blake. Eliot's okay but I really like William Julian as the mn's.

[rowan-belle.livejournal.com]

Arabella June is adorable! And I really like Marilyn Ava. For boys I like Zane and Jensen.

[rowan-belle.livejournal.com]

All of the middle names I've chosen are family names so that might be why they don't flow very well or aren't that great.

Girls:
Mary Ryan
Rowan Kelley
Elinor Kaitlyn (Elle)
Lilly Jane
Hannah Laurie

Boys:
Archer James
William Francis
Logan Peter
Sawyer Russell

Charlotte Kate
Kate Alexandria

Logan Peter has a nice flow.

Elinor is a lovely name as well, and I appreciate that spelling. :)

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

Charlotte Kate and Kate Alexandria are lovely. Nathaniel is one of my faves, too.

[thejoysofjess.livejournal.com]

I like a lot of your girls' names, but I think you are right in that they do not flow very well. I think Hannah Jane would be cuter than Hannah Laurie. Or Hannah Laurel even.

Your boys names are not my style, except for James.

[thejoysofjess.livejournal.com]

Mostly not my style. I'd like Dean Maxwell better, I think.

I love Marilyn.

[rowan-belle.livejournal.com]

Sense and Sensibility FTW :D

I love Charlotte and Kate, although I'd probably go with Kate as a nickname for Katherine. Olivia and Benjamin have always seemed kind of boring to me, for some reason. They're good names, though. Nathaniel is one of my favourites, and Nathaniel James is a great combination.

Dean Errol - Nice
Jensen Maxwell - I don't really like either name
Griffin Spencer - I really like both names, but I can't get past the surname aspect
Lucian Ross - Not really my style, but it's okay
Zane Brennan - Zane is pretty trendy these days, and for some reason I hate most Z names, haha
Brennan Wolf - I like Brennan, Wolf is neat as a middle name

Ingrid Lucille - LOVE
Arabella June - I'm not crazy about Arabella, but I love June
Fern Victoria - Like it
Edna Katherine - Not crazy about Edna
Marilyn Ava - I'm kind of neutral on this one
Majandra Jewel - I don't know if Majandra is a real name, but at least it doesn't look made up

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

Yeah, this has got to be one of the best lists of names I've ever seen. They're all great. May Elizabeth is on my list too. I especially love Colin Jeremiah and Charlotte Susannah. :D

[pythianlegume7.livejournal.com]

You know, I keep seeing you post Edna and every time you post it it grows on me a little. Plus, Edie is such a nice nickname.

I also love Fern Victoria, though personally I would prefer Victoria Fern. I also like Ingrid.

Lilac, Harper, and Jane are not at all names I would like on their own, but they sound beautiful all together! I think that's my favorite from your list. But I also like the name Adeline, and I like the combo of Eliot William Julian.

[zorianna.livejournal.com]

From your list, I like Eden, Ivy, Jacey, Juliet (though I prefer Juliette), Kate (as a mn), Rainne (spelled Rayne or Raine), Scarlett, and Skye. I like Kale from your boys names though I like the look of Cale better.

[zorianna.livejournal.com]

I like both of your boys names. Kate Alexandria is the only girls name from your list that struck me. For some reason, I've never liked Olivia or Charlotte. Just not my style I guess.
