Anna - Like it, but it's kind of plain.
Cara - Like it, but I like it better Kara.
Chloe - it's OK, but I don't really like it
Elisabeth - LOVE this, especially spelled with an s instead of a z. I like Ella as a nn, too.
Felicity - don't like it, but I don't really have a reason.
Julia - LOVE this name.
Kaelyn - it's OK, but it looks/sounds like you just forgot the t, and it also looks like the type of name that could become quite trendy in the near future.
Lara - I LOVE THIS NAME!!!
Meredith - Like it, but don't love it.
Nora - Love it. :)

Austin - ugh, I hate this name and it seems like everyone and their brother is naming their son Austin lately.
Andrew - Like it, but doesn't really do anything for me.
Benjamin - LOVE it.
Cole - Like it, but I think I like it better as a nn for Nicholas or Colby or something. It seems sort of unfinished to me.
Jacob - LOVE it.
Keagan - see Austin.
Luke - LOVE!!!!111!!!ONE!!! Haha, this is #2 on my list of boys' names, so maybe I'm a little biased.
Nathaniel (Nate) - Love it.
Noah - I LOVE this name. I doubt I'll ever use it, but it's battling with a few others for my #4 spot.
Owen - I have a friend with this as his last name, so I've always seen it as a last name. I hate it as a fn.
Patrick - LOVE it.

Some mn ideas:

Julia Elisabeth
Nora Elisabeth
Lara Elisabeth

Noah Patrick
Noah Andrew
Luke Andrew
Luke Jacob
Jacob Andrew
Jacob Austin
Nathaniel Cole

Luke is our number one name. I love the simplicity and the fact that it will be great as a kid and adult name (which today with popular names usually is not the case). I love the combo Luke Jacob I never even thought of that. Cole is our number two named as a nickname for Nicholas. and Benjamin is number 3 :) thanks for the comments. We seem to have similar taste.

I know a little boy whose name is Nicholas Charles and he goes by Cole. I think it's a cute name - cute for a little boy, but when he's older he can go by Nick and have it seem more grown up. And as a kid, he even has some options (Nick, Nicky, Cole)

Kaelyn, Kaylyn, Cailin, etc are all already very trendy.
