Charlotte: Cute, but as someone else pointed out to me on this board: It rhymes with harlot. Just what you want kids yelling at her "Harlot Charlotte!"
Anne Marie: Cute, only as a whole name. Unfortunately, it won't stay a whole name as all of her friends will nn her Anne, Marie, AM, Annie, etc. Anything but Anne Marie.
Silver: I hate to say this, but it just looks stupid, especially on a girl.
Avril: Cute, but Mrs. Lavigne-Whibley ruined it for everyone else.
Pandora: As in Pandora's box? Annoying.
Perdita: As in the dog from 101 Dalmations? All of her friends are going to know that.
Phoenix: This is okay, as long as she doesn't have siblings that are also named after cities in Texas.
October: This is not a month that seems to work as a name as well. River: Annoyingly emo to me.
Meadow: Cute, but I can imagine teasing to go something like this: "Meadow has dew on her..get it..dew! haha" Not cool.
Rain: Cute, but reminds me of the feminine hygiene product named Summer Rain.
Lotus: Cute, but I was told that this also is a feminine hygiene product.

River: See above.
Brooklyn: I have never been to Brooklyn, but I have been told it is not a pretty place.
Shiloh: Like the dog? I like this name, but could never use it on a child because of that dog!
Caspian: Cute, reminds me of Prince Caspian as well as Casper the friendly ghost.
Norman: This isn't a bad name, but it has been ruined for me somehow through the years.
Romeo: The second Beckham name you have on this list. It is too much related to Romeo and Juliet.
Indigo: This looks like it is trying to be too exotic.
Journey: Reminds me of a soap opera character.
Cruz: Not liking this, although it isn's as bad as many of the names you have on this list.
Indiana: Jones or the state?
Schuyler: I like this spelling, but many people don't know it is pronounced Skyler
Michelangelo: A painter and a Ninja Turtle.
