Wow, some of these are amazing, I like:

---

Iris, cousins Phoenix, Rowan
Alice Dora - awwwwwww
Maya and Sasha - Sasha on a boy
Edward, Lucy and Walter - Hughie I would like to turn into Hugo . . .
Amelia
Annabel Elisabeth Jane
Annabel Flora Rose (Edward), sisters Eliza and Daisy - I only like Daisy as a nn - but all these names are so light and flowery, adorable!
Annabelle Ruth - love this
Arabella Clementine
Arabella Iona Rose, sister Olivia - this is gorgeous. Olivia & Arabella make a lovely sib-set too, even if Olivia is so overused. Liv would be my personal choice as an alternative
Arabella Matilda - but not together
Athena Cecily (Arabella), brother Alastair – I don't really like Athena, but this combo is nice and I like it paired with Alastair
Ellis

GIRLS:

---

Abigail Rose - sweet but boring
Aléa Carrie - ok, I like the sound of Alea but don't really like any of the spellings and Carrie doesn't flow the best as a middle name
Alexa Iris - very cute although the names don't really complement each other
Alexa Kay - so short & sweet. I would use this. Torty makes me think of tortoise.
Alexa Louise - ok
Alexandra Victoria - both great names but together it is just too much. Sounds like a royal
Alice Dora - I think Dora Alice flows much better but very sweet names. Alice & Dora would actually be lovely as sisters
Alice Grace Prescott - fine
Alice Maude Helen - Helen doesn't flow in the name because Maude is so blunt.
Alisha Ruby-Leigh - not crazy about
Alyssa Rose - boring
Amalfi Cordelia - It sounds nice but Amalfi isn't a great name imo
Amara Ailsa - nice enough
Amelia Charlotte Grace - LOVE this!! All sweet soft feminine names that flow nicely & complement each other
Ariana Rae - ok
Athena Cecily Talitha - bit too much. Very frilly & too long

These are, in general, so much more tasteful than the names being used here in downeast Maine, the local BA's are replete with made-up spellings, and Addisons & Madisons for girls.

LOL, the bell-names are really out in force now.
I don't really like Aléa, but gotta say it looks a lot gentler and nicer than Aaaaaaaaaaliyah.
Alice Dora is quite sweet.
Nicki and Laura - lesbian couple? if so, good to see one in BAs
I suspect Amalfi is one of those dubious 'we made you on holiday' names, but her sibs are quite nice, assumiong Hughie is really Hugh.

I'm pleased to see Alice and Arabella in force! I like seeing Helen there if only as a mn. Arabella Carol is a little incongruous - Arabella Caroline would be so beautiful, but perhaps Carol honours a gran. It seems Arabella has been discovered as an alternative to Isabella.
Not so fond of Alyssa - it's undeniably pretty but I prefer Alicia, pronounced the British way (four syllables).

I really love Alexa Iris. Alice Dora and Annabel Flora Rose are both wonderfully sweet. I dislike Arabella. I'm surprised there are so many though, I have never met or heard of one before! Are these from a particular part of the UK?

I really like Athena Cecily. the Talitha is a bit much for me, since Athena has such presence.
