I adore the English sounding family of Edward, Stacey, Jocelyn and Hamilton, although I don't think I'd curse a son with the name Stacey in this era. Jocelyn is growing on me more and more every time I see it. Are there any other legit ways of spelling it?

I love the name Hamilton. Love it!

Edward & Jocelyn sound English, but Hamilton & Sacey sound very American to my ears.

Stacey is the worlds worst name, I hate it even more on females.

I like:

Lily Charlotte
Max
Ewan (Ryan)
Eloise
Kolby, but I much prefer Colby
Travis Benjamin
Sarah Lily (Lucy, Joseph)
Michael

Kaitlyn and Haylee are two of my least favorite names of all time.

Cameron Riley...boy or girl? Doesn't really matter, because I don't love the name for either sex, but I'd like it better for a boy than a girl. I wonder if they named the baby before knowing the sex. It really is one of the most unisex names I can think of.

I hate the name Stacey on a girl, but on a boy it doesn't seem quite as atrocious, for whatever reason. Certainly don't love it or anything.

Oh, and I'm not sure how legit these alternative spellings are, but here's a list of them for your viewing pleasure or displeasure, depending on how you feel about them (some of them are pretty bad in my opinion).

Alternative Spellings: Jocelin, Joceline, Jocelynn, Jocelynne, Joclyn, Josalyn, Josalynn, Joscelyn, Joselyn, Josilyn, Josline, Jossalyn, Josselyn, Josselynne, Joycelyn, Jocelyne, Joscelin, Jossalin, Josilin and Joslyne

Lily Charlotte - very sweet, love it.
Max Ian - love max, but not with ian, it sounds odd.
Austin Jay - austin will forever be the trashiest boys name, to me. also, project runway fan anyone?
Ewan Milan (Ryan) - ryan is nice.
Kaitlin Lita (Haylee) - i like kaitlin, but prefer caitlin.
Chloe Leigh - chloe is cute until youre about 5, then its over.
Matias Gustavo - i assume this is an italian baby or something, nms.
Kade Graeme Louie (Eloise) - eloise is nice, the other one not so much.
Cameron Riley - i have such contempt for the name cameron. and with riley? is it a boy or a girl? jeez people.
Kolby Arthur - arthur is a sweet middle. hopefully he will start going by that sooner rather than later. wtf kolby.
Travis Benjamin - dont like either.
Sarah Lily (Lucy, Joseph) - sarah lily is really beautiful, even though i am not normally a fan of sarah. i love lily and lucy.
Hamilton (Edward, Stacey (m), Jocelyn) - i like edward, its a family name for me. hamilton intrigues me, but i think it sounds a little pretensious. plus, i know someone who has a pet pig named hamilton. so yea.
Skyla Joy - just no.
Hayden Michael - hayden was the final frontier in -ayden names for me, and then a female hayden became a super tv star, and that was that.
Madalin Dawn - i dont get the (mis)spelling, but madeline/madeleine dawn would have been quite nice.

Awww, Sarah Lily was my nan's name! :)

I love the sibset too - very nice :)

I must admit that Hayden is a guilty pleasure name of mine - I love it, but only on girls. Don't ask me why. It's the only -ayden name I can take.

I also love the name Benjamin.

lily charlotte
max ian
ryan
eloise
cameron (b)
travis benjamin
sarah lily, lucy, joseph
edward, jocelyn

Hamilton sounds ridiculous to me, but maybe that's because of the city. It's definitely not a city I would name a kid after, though, heh. Aside from that, it just sounds really snobby, but I've never been a fan of the 'ton' names, so there you have it.

I think I would like Max more if it wasn't so overused. I haven't seen it in a while, so when I saw it on this list, I actually didn't mind it.

I like Lily Charlotte, Sarah Lily, Joseph, and Edward.

I know a Joslin.
