I love Nathaniel and Oliver but those combos don't flow well to me. Nicholas is wonderful as well.

I prefer Sean spelled Shawn but that's a strong combo. I'm wishy-washy about Simon- always have been. No idea why.

I apologize if it's a family name or something, but Winifred is so ugly and awkward to me. I do love the NN Winnie though. I have bad associations with the name Patricia but I do like it if I can block that out lol. Patti's a fun NN too I think.

I love both Oliver and Tristan, but that doesn't really flow. I think Tristan Oliver sounds much nicer.

I like Simon James, Sean Alexander and Oliover Tristan. I like Nicholas , just not with Robert. Nathaniel John, and Adam David I do not like.

As for girls, I hate Winifred and Patricia. Lilian is cute, and Lily is my favourite name.

Haha, for some reason this comment reminded me of those riddles where you have to figure out what the person doesn't like based on spelling patterns or something like that.

Yeah... I'm not very good at explaining things, am I? Haha.

Haha, I know what you mean, the comment reminded me of the same thing.

hmm... I replied to this comment earlier, but it apparently didnt post. You made me giggle! It makes me think of them too... but it wasn't my intention!
My previous post rambled about the Fannie Dooley riddles but I dont want to retype it all again.

I absolutely LOVE Winifred. I think I like Winifred Lillian the best.

I like all of your first names, but I HATE Tristan and think Alexander is too over-used.

There is a great book by the author of Anne of Green Gables called Pat of Silver Bush, and the older sister's name is Winifred (Winnie) Gardiner. I have liked the name ever since.

Plus, its a whole lot easier for me to imagine a 40 year old woman named Winifred than it is McKenzie or Nevaeh.

Boys:

Simon James - I hate "Simon" (the nerdy chipmunk), "James" is a gorgeous middle name :)!
Nathaniel John - This is nice.
Robert Nicholas - kind of plain IMO.
Adam David - Nice, but again, kind of plain.
Sean Alexander - I'm not a fan of "Sean", I love "Alexander"
Oliver Tristan - Hate "Oliver", love "Tristan"

Girls:
Winifred Patricia - Winifred is one of the ugliest names IMO, sorry... I don't care for Patricia either.
Winifred Lillian - Lillian is nice.
Lily Patricia - I like Lily.

Tristan Alexander or Nathaniel James are better choices IMO.

I love Simon! Not brave enough to use it myself, but I think it'd be awesome if someone else did. =)

Can't get behind any of your girl names though.. sorry.

Another Combo or two to think about..

One of my top girls names is Patricia Lillian.

One of my top boys names is Robert Nathaniel.

I like the nn Winnie but I am not so sure about Winifred.

I *adore* Adam, Oliver and Lily. I hate Tristan and Winifred though. I do like the nickname Winnie though.

Pretty names.

Simon James - Lovely. I like Simon a lot.
Nathaniel John - Beautiful. Nathaniel is a beautiful name, and I love all the nickname options.
Robert Nicholas - Really nice. I have a friend who named her son Robert, though, and now she regrets it, because everyone is calling him "Robbie", despite her asking them not to. She hates it. Just a thought, the name itself is great, and I like Robbie too.
Adam David - Gorgeous. My favourite after Nathaniel.
Sean Alexander - I'm not a huge fan of the name Sean, it's a bit dull compared to some of your other names. But this is okay.
Oliver Tristan - I don't like Tristan at all, but Oliver is lovely.


Winifred Patricia - I like it! Buffy has the best names ever.
Winifred Lillian - Gorgeous too.
Lily Patricia - My very favourite. Beautiful, I love both names, and they sound beautiful together.

Nathaniel is my favorite boy name ever. (My only problem with it is that I'd call a Nathaniel "Nate" and Kate is my favorite girl name ever....we have a problem).

Simon makes me think of Simon Camden, but other than that, I really like it.

Tristan seems a little out of place next to Oliver.

Winifred Lillian is my favorite out of your girl names. I've never met a Patricia I've liked, so it's just turned me off of the name.

Simon James flows well, but I've never been fond of Simon, despite having a dear friend by that name. Nathaniel is great, not terribly keen on John. Robert Nicholas is lovely but not my style. I don't care for Adam or David and I don't think they work well as a combo. Sean Alexander has a nice sound but I don't like Sean. I've never liked Oliver but I love Tristan.

Winifred Patricia sounds kind of "old" to me. Winifred Lillian does as well, but I love Lillian. Lily is one of my favorite names, I can take or leave Patricia, though it's the middle name of one of my cousin's daughters (Susanna Patricia) and she's adorable, so the name's grown on me.

Also, wouldn't having a Simon and Cordelia be mixing your fandoms? ;)

Simon James is my favourite combo.

Lily Patricia is beautiful in my opinion.

I really like Simon James.

Don't fancy the girls' names much.. Lily Patricia I guess.
