Hadn't even noticed the hyperlinks! Yay! Always bugged me that Élodie didn't link and I feel like Elodie doesn't convey the pronunciation I want.
Re: Afton. I get that. It's on my boy list too, it's one of the very few names I like on both. If it helps, the full combo would be Afton Eirlys Reverie, and I'd use Aerie as a frequent nn (I know it's a stretch, but it does kinda sound like the combo smushed together. IMO anyway :) ) but I know people are generally not a fan of Aerie so that probably doesn't help! I think only like it so much cause I met the cutest little Aerie in Scotland years ago, and it's stuck. But it's strictly nn only as I don't see it aging well. So that's partly why I'd use Afton on a girl- it's my favourite way to get to the nn Aerie.

I love Élodie, Xanthe has also grown on my since I know a little girl with this name now. I was pretty impressed with the parents for picking that name
August and Ezra are great names too. I feel sad about Ezra, it was on my list until I met a person with that name who I do not like, now he's all I think of when I think of the name.
