Boys:
Seamus - Hate! I will never understand the appeal of this name. It looks like semen and sounds like "shame-us." Like, "shame on us for giving our son such an awful name!"
Holden - The literary connoations are too strong. Sounds like something an angsty 17 year old would name her baby.
Oliver - Ok.
Thatcher - Don't like.
Briar - Don't like.
Micah - Nice, but too biblical for me.
Tobias - Love!
Cedric - Like
Sirius/Cyrus - Hmm. I can't decide.
Leon - Ok.
Klaus - No..
Wolfgang - Ahhh, HATE!
Titus - Ok but I can't get past the fact that it has the word tit in it.

Girls:
Adelaide - Nice
Adelle - Love! Really pretty.
Lucia - Like it a lot.
Chase - Gah, so boyish!
Imogen - Meh.
Autumn - Nice.
Isolde - Meh.
Scout(mn) - Awful.
Hermione - I've never known how to pronounce this.
Raine(mn) - I like it for a mn. :)
Beatrice/Beatrix - Like.
Camden - Too boyish/surnamey.
Dahlia - Pretty.
Luca - NO! Again, a boys name!
Pearl - LOVE! My favorite of your girl names. It's so pretty and charming.
Peyton - Ok for a five year old boy, but for anyone else? No.

Eep, looks like we have very different tastes in names! I do really love Pearl, Adelle, Lucia, and Tobias though.

HER MY NEE

But the 'my' has a little o thrown in it. More like 'MOY'. But not so pronouced.

Now, honestly, would anybody like that name if it weren't for Harry Potter? I might have to watch the movie just to see how it's pronounced. I'm still having a bit of trouble with it and HER MY NEE just makes me think "heiny."

I feel the exact same way. (Actually I feel exactly the same as you do about almost every name! Haha!)

Oh, I'm glad someone agrees! I see that name a lot in this community and I just don't get it. =/
