Hmm...I'm not into bashing, so I'll give comments.I dislike Eleanor "Nora," Virginia, Kennedy, Irina, Michael, Hayden, Ronald "Ron," Holden, Maxwell "Max," Christopher, & Cooper.Nora is bland.
Virginia is rescued by its nickname.
Kennedy is a surname.
Irina is...just bad.
Michael is WAY too overused.
Hayden is a planetarium.
Ronald is bland.
Holden is a J.D. Salinger character.
Maxwell sounds like "inkwell."
Christopher is WAY too devout and makes no sense. ("Christ bearer." COME ON! As if a person can carry around a dead person's soul)
Cooper is also a surname.

Girls:
Eleanor "Ella" - Yay! Naming your little girl after an old lady, then trying to make it popular! Wow! How.,.. nice.
Eleanor "Nora" - Naming her after an old lady again?! I thought you now better this time. Oh, but you want people to call her by a raspy singer's name. Like this will make it any better.
Eleanor "Ellie" - And again!
Rowan - Go ahead, name your daughter after a tree. And then she'll dye her hair red. Perfect!
Lorelei - She'll get asked how her name is pronounced, eevery time.
Lily - Flowery, flowery, flowery. Ick, ick, ick.
Aurora "Rory" - Sure, have a tounge-twister of a name. Then I'll shorten it to a boy's name.
Grace - Crazy Grace! (lady who lives on my block. She used to yell at me)
Natalie - People will be calling her Nat all of the time. And she'll hate every second of it.
Virginia "Ginny" - Harry Potter freak! Hehe.. Ginny.
Leah - She'll be Leah Surname, along with the other Leah Surnames.
Caroline - Yet another person named after a state. I'm suprised her nickname isn't Liney.
Emma - Emma G., Emma U., Emma P...
Anna - You can be more creative than that!
Catherine "Kate" - Kate doesn't really go with Catherine. Try Cathy. That'll atleast make sense!
