Jekatya Yates, "Kate" Dylan Eliot Kendall, "Tom"
Holden Finn Kendall, "Danny"

Ella Jane Jackson- Change Jane to Jean and Jackson to something not as brutal-sounding. Other than that, fairly good.
Jillian Evanston Shaw, "Jill"- EW! Jill is a horrible name. Evanston is the name of the town in "Mean Girls." I like Shaw, because it's Aidan's surname in "Sex and the City."
Hayley Grace Landon- Hayley is too...something. Grace is O.K...but not great. London sounds better than Landon.
Rose Theresa Catherine O'Connor- Firstly, get rid of Theresa. It's nice, but it doesn't fit here. Also, Catherine should be changed to Katherine and put before Rose. The alliteration, surprisingly, works.
Susanna Grace Locke- Susanna is too Stephen (I hope I spelled that correctly) Foster. See comment on Grace above. Locke is better without the 'e.'
Nadia Susan Wakefield- Nadia should have won American Idol--I mean...it's nice. Susan is too old-fashioned/Hufflepuff-esque. Wakefield reminds me of Dr. Chet Wakefield in "TAKEN." Scary doctor, scary name.
Regan Jocasta Kendall- Regan = The Exorcist = horrific = cannot go to sleep at night for a month. Jocasta should be used only in Greek mythology. Kendall is pleasant.

I really respect you for letting others rip on your character names. I write stories also and would not have enough guts to do that! My feelings would get hurt :( But I'll give it a go...
Ella Jane Jackson-This sounds like a little girl to me. Hopefully this is not the name for a full grown woman because I don't think it ages very well. Ella Jane is good but Jackson reminds me to much of Janet, Michael, LaToya and the lot.
Jillian Evanston Shaw, "Jill"-I personally hate the name Jillian but Jill is okay. Evanston would be a good middle name if this is her mother's maiden name or someone elses surname that she was named after. Shaw is a very strong last name, I like it.
Hayley Grace Landon-I hate the name Hayley because it is really trendy and I know lots of cats and dogs with this name also. Grace is pretty and old fashioned and Landon reminds me of Michael Landon, the dad from the Little House on the Prairie TV series.
Rose Theresa Catherine O'Connor-This would be great if Theresa was not in the mix, I don't like that name and I feel it makes the name as a whole too long and bulky.
Susanna Grace Locke-I like this.
Nadia Susan Wakefield-What ethnic background is this character? Nadia sounds very Eastern European to me while Susan Wakefield sounds very Western. I say either ditch Nadia and go for a more traditional first name or change the middle and last to something more exotic.

Ella Jane Jackson ~ I hate double initials... EJJ could be pronounced Edge, too, which REALLY IRRITATES ME.
Jillian Evanston Shaw, "Jill" ~ Evanston sucks. Where's Jack?
Hayley Grace Landon ~ Hayley is trendy Grace is trendy. I hate it. And Landon is the name of that annoying boy from "A Walk To Remember." EUGH.
Rose Theresa Catherine O'Connor ~ I hate the name Theresa.
Susanna Grace Locke ~ Grace is trendy. I hate lns that have historically famous people attached to them, too.
Nadia Susan Wakefield ~ Nadia looks Weird with plain Susan next to it. I don't like Nadia at all.
Regan Jocasta Kendall ~ This name makes me want to seriously injure people.
Paula Mary Brown ~ Boring. zZzZzZzZz.
Christina Faith Brown ~ Boring and slutty-sounding.
Jessica Kathryn Yates ~ I much prefer Catherine to Kathryn. And I hate the way Yates sounds.
Jekatya Yates, "Kate" ~ This is WEIRD. I despise it.Dylan Eliot Kendall, "Tom" I hate Dylan and Kendall. Eliot is pretty though.
Holden Finn Kendall, "Danny" ~ Where the heck did you get Danny from Holden? I hate Finn, by the way. I love Holden, but I wouldn't use it for characters - people will KNOW you're trying to rip off Catcher in the Rye.
Neil Clarke Warren ~ This name sounds cut-up together. Neil sucks, Clarke sucks, Warren is a good ln though. The exception to my historical-ln rule.
Jacob Daniel Carver, "Jake" ~ Boring as heck.
Isaac Thomas Locke, "Zach" ~ Another Locke? And Zach is short for ZACHARY.
Aaron Matthew Locke ~ boring stodgy old biblical name. And that dratted LOCKE again!
A is for Amy who fell down the stairs, B is for Basil assaulted by bears, C is for Clara who wasted away, D is for Desmond thrown out of a sleigh... !!!!!!!!!! - Tobias, Jesse, Wyatt, Shane, Preston, Maverick, Rebel, Gibson, Shiloh, and Timber... & - Andy
