I am not expecting to have children anytime soon but I want your opinion anyway since someday my future children will probably have one of the names listed below. I seem to have a really hard time with boy names and I don't know if the names I like classify as "odd" or not, so let me know. (My boyfriend's last name is Poss, so I guess you could put the names with his last name.)


My favorite names for girls:

• Ellie Christina
(Ellie is my all time favorite girl name, but I am not sure "Christina" fits well with it.)

• Astrid Harper


• Lilly Bijou


• Audrey Catherine


• Frances Mary


• Isolde Juliet
  
• Adair Jolie
(Not after Angelina, my mom had told me about the name "Jolie" when I was really young and I have loved it since. I used to spell it "Joelie" though and I am not sure if that is a good way to spell it. Also, I think "Adair" is a boy name but I love it more on a girl.)

My favorite names for boys:

• Jude (?)


• Elijah Matthew


• Oliver (?)


• Noah Elliott


• Nolan Francis
(Though I think Francis sounds too feminine.)

So... thoughts, opinions, suggestions, criticisms?

Ellie is too nicknamey. Christina is dated (like Laura or Amy).
I love Astrid. I prefer Harper on a boy.
I like Lily spelled this way. Bijou is silly sounding and a cutesy.
Audrey Catherine is really nice, but not inspiring.
Frances Mary is nice enough, but again, not inspiring.
Isolde Juliet might be too much since both names are after tragic romances in literature. I like them both but seperately.
Adair is all boy to me and people will still think Jolie is after Angelina.

I love Jude.
I never really liked Elijah or Matthew.
I love Oliver.
I like Noah. Never really liked Elliott
Francis definitely doesn't sound femme. Not a fan of Nolan.
