[Opinions] I LOVE it, but I have one concern.

That's definitely exciting. I like all four names, and I'm glad she picked them for the right reasons. My main problem is using Beowulf as a fn. I have nothing against her choice of it, but it will stick out undoubtably and although she likes it, her son may regret it later on. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for using literary names- this is coming from the person who wants to name her daughters Arwen, Idril, and Luthien.She could amend it to:
Xavier Beowulf
Lux Amadeus, orXavier Beowulf
Lux Amedea- Amadeus on a girl doesn't faze me terribly as a Mozart fanatic, but it doesn't hurt to consider alternatives. Lux is perfect, by the way.Even if she can't bear to change it, the set is amazing. I'm so glad they won't be Aiden and McKenzie or anything in that style!

I think she's pretty much set on what she's picked and I'm personally glad. I'm also glad they won't be Aiden and McKenzie. You wouldn't believe the amount of people who are horrified by these names and making personal attacks ("I feel sorry for the kids," etc.). Btw, I love Arwen, Idril and Luthien! Big fan of Tolkien names!M.
