These are the ones that conjur up something immediately in my mind:

Lola - Showgirl(as in, Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl...)
Daisy -Daisy Duke
Elise - Letters to Elise by the cure (I like this name)
Eloise - How would you pronounce it? It's close to my sister's middle name, and that's pronounced Ee-Loice
Sienna - The crayon color, Burnt Sienna
Lucy - Lucille Ball (I also love this name)
Georgie - This one makes me think of the movie "It." (but I associate it with a boy)


Dylan- I think of Dylan Thomas
Henry - I love the name Henry, and love the nn Hank even more.
Kyle - Kyle is one of those names that I have bad associations with because I've only ever known douchebags named Kyle.
Nicholas - Another fave of mine (it's my husband's name)
Noah - Bible
Liam - Liam Neeson (another favorite name of mine)

I really like:

Lola
Madeleine
Elise
Eloise
Lucy
Georgia

Lucas
Henry
Nicholas
Zachary
Noah
Liam
Rhys (love this)

The only ones that stick out to me as super trendy are Lucy, Sophia, Skye (I don't think it's overly popular but sounds trendy to me), Noah and Liam. They might be on the decline though--I'm not sure.

Lola - mn suggestions for this are particularly welcome :) not really a fan- thinking stripper
Daisy- kind of cute- girlish
Madeleine- I always thought it was pretty- would you pronounce Mad-uh-line or Mad-uh-lynn? I like the "line" pronunciation
Elise -ok
Eloise- old lady
Maya- pretty
Sienna- pretty
Lucy- also think of an old lady
Sophia- like it but it became so popular I started to like Sophie better
Georgie - as a nn for Georgia probably, possibly Georgina- love both names but not crazy about Georgie as a nickname
Skye- kind of pretty I always think hippie- ish

I really like all of your boys names except Kyle- think it's too boyish and cute sounding
and Liam and Rhys are just ok to me

Lola -- pretty!
Madeleine -- the book series. Love this name
Sienna -- the color. Love this name
Skye -- would be much better if spelled Sky

Dylan, Kyle, and Zachary were all jerks from middle/high school so I have bad associations with those names. Love Henry, Nicholas, and Rhys, though!

Middle names for Lola--I think Madeleine, Elise, Eloise, Sophia, and Skye would all work really well. Other suggestions:

Lola Mae
Lola Charlotte
Lola Delphine
Lola Christine
Lola Ivy
Lola Violet
Lola Rebecca
Lola Catherine
Lola Regina
Lola Evelyn
Lola Genevieve
Lola Marina
Lola Corinna

Lola was on our list... first name actually, for a girl. We wanted to call her Lo for short, or Loey. Madeleine was too (spelled that way) but it was too trendy for us. We opted for Matilda/Margot instead. We didn't end up using either since we had a boy. LOL!

I love Lucas, but it's also too popular for me. Henry is awesome.

Lola - Stripper/Showgirl or a dog.
Daisy - an Asian person
Madeleine - the books
Elise - A nerdy girl I went to college with.
Eloise - the books, and my mom (they are her favorite books) which makes me dislike it strongly.
Maya - Rudolph. This is an okay name.
Sienna - Burnt, like the color. This is also an okay name. But I also think of rich preppy bitches, unfortunately.
Lucy - I love Lucy, the show.
Sophia - trendy or subdivision mcMansion houses.
Georgie - A girl I know named Geogiana. I think its more a guys name.
Skye - I just don't like it.

Lucas - George and star wars.
Dylan - Bob.
Henry - our electrician.
Kyle - My cousin (spelled Kiel though)
Nicholas - a kid I do karate with. Or santa.
Zachary - the kid brother of a friend.
Noah - The ark.
Liam - the actor.
Rhys - my cousin's last name (Rees) and the candy bar

Overall I like your boy names a LOT more. Sorry if this comes across harsh, I gave my honest first opinions.

Eloise is usually pronounced this way: (say the letters out loud) "L" "O" "E's" (or el-oh-ease)

Lola - mn suggestions for this are particularly welcome :) - I don't think this is PARTICULARLY trendy but definitely on the rise.
Daisy
Madeleine
Elise
Eloise - all four of these are super cute and sort of on the boundary of trendiness.
Maya - I teach piano to little kids and I know SO MANY MAYA's!!!!! Super duper trendy in these parts.
Sienna - again, I know a lot of little Siennas.
Lucy - very cute and still not too overused, I think.
Sophia - VERRRRRY trendy, at my church especially!
Georgie - as a nn for Georgia probably, possibly Georgina - I love this.
Skye - also fantastic.

Lucas - I love this.
Dylan - Not a big fan of this one
Henry - a good, sound old fashioned name.
Kyle - feels very 90s to me
Nicholas - EXCELLENT! my brother's name :)
Zachary - again, very 90s
Noah - meh
Liam - very trendy!!
Rhys - I like this - don't really know any Americans who choose to give this name to their kids, mostly people of Welsh/British origin.

Lola - Lolita (from Dolores)
Georgie - Porgie, pudding and pie ... also Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire.
Eloise and Madeleine remind me of book series, even though it would be "Madeline".
Skye seems a bit dated, like something that would've been trendy in the 90s.
Maya is very popular, so is Sophia
Lucy - I love Lucy! .. don't we all.
Sienna, Burnt sienna.

Lucas, Henry, Nicholas, Zachary, Noah, Liam, Rhys I all like. Kyle is sorta 80s, and Dylan feels like the Cayden of the 90s.

Lola - I never saw the fascination with this name to be honest. To me it works better as a nickname than a full name, and I can think of heaps of movie characters and celebribabies with the name.
Daisy - It's one of those names that are growing on me. Cute on a little girl.
Madeleine - One of my favorites. It seems to be really popular these days though.
Elise - don't really like it. To me it feels very 80s, probably because I knew a lot of girls with that name growing up.
Eloise - I like it. I think it's on the rise though.
Maya - very popular.
Sienna - makes me think of Sienna Miller. However, I think it's a gorgeous name.
Lucy - always liked this. It's one of those kind of classic ones that are always present, and I think it goes well for both children and adults.
Sophia - My favorite name at the moment. It's insanely popular though.
Georgie - to me this is a boys name.
Skye - blue skies.

Lucas - I like it, but it's very popular in Norway where I'm from so it's put me a bit off it.
Dylan - Bob Dylan?
Henry - makes me think of old English kings.
Kyle - someone said it's very 80s and I have to agree
Nicholas - love it
Zachary - love it
Noah - love it, but it's popular
Liam - Also kind of popular, I think. I can again mention a bunch of celebribabies with the name.
Rhys - this somehow makes me think of a man in his 30s. Don't really know why.
