Some of theses are spectacularally AWFUL.
I'm sorry, I'm from Oklahoma and here a Jersey is a cow.
Espen Odd? Your Kidding, right?
Hurricane Skye? Sibling to Katrina?
Bojangles? In memory of Daddy's favorite Pit Bill
Lincoln Mercury. Point of conception?
Please tell me little Ena Cense will be called AnnMarie.
Oh well, I actually liked Jubilee!
Great post.

I love Jersey on a girl.

Wow. Some of these are lovely*, while the kre8tif ones just scared me.
GIRLS
Azalea River*- I love it!
Essence Ariel*- So graceful.
Patience Courtney Gene- It was going so well, until I hit the Gene.
Finley Kate*- Finley is cute, and Kate does a lot to make it sound more feminine.
Brystil Jorilayne- Wow. This kid will have fun when she hits preschool. I feel like this name used to be something, though I'm not sure what, but was misspelled or mispronounced beyond all recognition.
Hurricane Madelyn Skye- I can see how Hurricane could be a name, but it just doesn't strike me as one. Hurricane and Skye is a bit heavy for me, leaving only Madelyn, which I'm not terribly fond of.
Cadence Chariot Elaine*- Adorable. I love Cadence and Elaine, and Chariot is refreshing.
I' Rhiana Unique Lynnelle- Well, Unique is sure right.
Meadow Elaine*- I adore Meadow for a FN, and Elaine is a favorite.
Lily Isis*- I prefer Lily Iris, but this is lovely.
Willow Shea [Sibs: Trinity & London]*- I adore this sibset. Trinity is lukewarm for me, but Trinity, London, and Willow sound perfect together.

Hurricane! That's... cute... =/
I like (though for the most part wouldn't use):
GIRLS:
Azalea
Elaine
Stormy -- Storm
Kate -- only as a nn
Ramsie -- don't like it, but it's cool
Raven
Lily Isis -- I love this combo! I'd so use it!
Suzanne
Leanne
Willow
Trinity
London -- GP
Wren
BOYS:
Soren
Edward
Henry
Forrest
Finnegan
Cassidy
Samuel
Ellis
Orion
August William -- this is so handsome... it's stunning.
Xavier
Lucas
Venice -- cool, but would be a girls' GP
Zephyr
What were they thinking when they used Michael on a GIRL? And Hurricane is just terrible. Odd does not make a good name at all. How they missed that they were essentially naming their kid "weird" and setting him up for about 6 years of torture in elementary school is beyond me. Lincoln Mercury... car obsessed, no?

I wouldn't use Michael on a girl - but I think I understand the appeal - if you like the sound - don't have issues with boy's names on girl's - and perhaps are honouring someone.
The name isn't that different to Michaela (incredibly popular at the moment)or Michal (pronounced in the anglicised way - and which I love:) - and it is infinitely nicer than Michelle (unless you're French and can pull off Michelle with a beautiful French accent :).
I also know two people who have honoured their grandfathers - by giving their daughters male middle names (both Charles). I think it's a variant of the current trend of using traditional names and honouring names, but giving it a slightly different twist (it wasn't a longstanding tradition in either of their families to honour grandfather's - they just loved the idea).
so - in my usual long waffly fashion - I think they may have been thinking any of the above when they gave their girl Michael as a middle name - or they could (maybe) have just loved the name :)

um I'd use Michael on a girl :) [m]
and I am thinking, lol. I hate Michaela/Mia/Michelle/Michal or any other feminine form Michael for girls they just don't appeal to me so that's why I'm using Michael for a girl even though its not girly sounding at all or feminine oh well :/.
I know you didn't ask but as someone who would use Michael on a girl that's what I was thinking :).

This isn't meant to start an argument or force my opinions upon you or anything of the sorts, I just want to say how I feel about it. I hope you don't mind.
I know that you like some feminine names on boys, masculine names on girls, etc., but... Michael? I guess it just seems so handsome and masculine to me. Kind of like naming a girl Johnathon, James, Alexander or Thomas. It just doesn't work for me, I guess. I prefer the name Anais on a boy, but it's feminine. Frankly a lot of people have never heard of the name Anais in their life (despite Anais Nin), so it's less obviously a gender-bender. All in all it's the decision of the parent to name their child, but I really don't see the appeal in it. Plus, does it really matter if you don't like any of the feminine forms of Michael? You don't have to have a feminine alternative for it, or even use it on a girl at all. Alexander, Alexis, Aleksei and all other masculine forms of Alexander are some of my favorite names ever, but I positively loathe every feminine form, so I just decided to not bother with a feminine form of it at all. Also, I don't like any feminine forms of Patrick, so just decided that it would stay masculine and no form of it would be used for a girl. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you rather like the names Milo and Miles, right? They're honestly nms, but are forms of Michael, and seem much more feminine. Miley is an actual feminine form. Why not try those?
Now, again, all naming choices are up to you. I hope I didn't seem like I was forcing my own ideas upon you in this post. If I did come off like that, I apologize. This was simply a post with my own opinions and nothing more.

Michael Learned = Olivia Walton
Michael Learned is a noted actress who played the mother, Olivia, on the series The Waltons ("Good night, Johnboy"). She is one famous example of the fact that Michael has been used for both sexes.
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0495229/bio
Of course I do recognize that usage is overwhelmingly male, still, it would not be without precedent to name a daughter Michael.

Anais is not a masculine name. What do you mean by "it's less known to be strictly masculine"?
1
Oh wow I worded that really badly
That's meant to mean that it's not a masculine name, but isn't commonly known in general. I'll go fix that right now lol.
