[Opinions] Re: 2014 BAs
Makenna Kathleen -- Makenna, McKenna, and all the variants just aren't my cup of tea.Natalie Adele -- Uh-lee Uh-dell... repetitive sound is throwing me off.Lily Grace -- Very generic.Athena Katherine "Attie" -- I admit I have a guilty pleasure for Greek god names. I like this.Cora Ann -- Too short, too brief. Lacking.Taytum Willow -- Not liking this at all. Would have preferred to see Tatum.Madeleine Helen -- Love both names, but not together.Elsie Elizabeth-May -- Cringing. Elsie is a nickname for Elizabeth, isn't it? Why couldn't she have been Elizabeth May "Elsie"?Emmi Josephine - Wish they had gone with Emeline or Emily, or even Emma. Josephine is beautiful.Maisie Barbara -- I'm starting to like Barbara more. Maisie is hard to grow with, though.Bethany Anne -- Boring.Charlotte Rose -- Pretty, simple and inoffensive.Olivia Joy -- Boring imo.Reyna Inez -- Ehh...Harriet Harper -- If Harper were her last name, she'd be a super hero or journalist in 1950-1960 culture! Unfortunately as a first name and middle name all I get is Har-Har.Mabel Dawn -- I've not warmed up to Mabel and Dawn is very strung-out 70's to me.Elli Mae -- ...Clampett? Beverly Hillbillies, anyone?Chelsea Grace -- Very 80s-90s! Not too keen.Evelyn Charlene -- Not liking this very well.Mila Genevieve -- Something about this is just rubbing me the wrong way. Can't place it.Aria Emily-Ann -- What is up with these hyphenated middle names? What's the point?Zella Celeste -- Too many heavy L sounds.Madelynn Ruth -- Not bad, not good.
James Francis -- Sounds decent together, but I don't like it.Jerusalem Meyer "Ru" -- I like the nickname (prefer Rue) but not the name as a whole.Bentley Christopher -- Waiting impatiently for Bentley to fall out of trend.Nick E (it's just E, not short for anything) -- No.Henry William -- Lovely, classic, inoffensive.Benjamin Thomas -- Same as above.Taliesin Michael -- Why am I starting to like Taliesin? That's beyond me.Henry Arthur -- Very Medieval, but I'm digging it.Lucas Edward -- Goes well together, inoffensive.Nicholas John -- Like Nicholas, not so much John.Benjamin Ray -- Really dislike Ray.Elijah John -- Jah-jon, Jah-jon. Dislike the sound.Quinten Douglas -- Surprisingly handsome, despite me not really liking either name respectively.Killian Markus -- Not keen.Carter Matthew -- I like Carter.Clifton William Nathaniel "William/Will" -- Very handsome, love that he's going by Will.Mason Jacob -- Pass.Charles Maddoc -- Not bought on Maddoc, pass.Jake Charles -- Prefer Jacob Charles.Noah Dale -- Dale throws me off, I don't like it.Rowan Levi -- Love Rowan, not Levi.Evan Russell -- I'm in limbo on this one.

hyphenated middle namesFor girls, especially, I have noticed is becoming much more common in the last 5 years or so. I've seen them a lot. Interesting.
