Octavia- is okay. A name name, and one I'd be excited to hear, even if I'd never use it.
Willow- lovely!
Caroline- I didn't use to like it, but recently lots of my role models have seemed to bear this name, and I'm really warming to it. It has so many nice nicknames, too.
Elena- sweet. My sister is Elin.
Luna- gorgeous!
Nina- always bugs me, 'een' sounds do. Nia I prefer (my name, heehee)
Margot- okay. Meg is a cute nn.
Kimberly- my guilty pleasure. Kimi is such a cute nickname.
Melody- oh, I want to like it, I really do!
Alexandra- nah, never liked.Clark- feels surname-y
Marshall- ditto
Tennyson- ditto
Atticus- nice, quite hipster. Good associations- To Kill A Mockingbird, plus the narrator of my favourite story book ever.
Sebastian- I love it, though I cannot for the life of me find a decent nickname.
Beckett- surname-y
Isaac- nice
Tobias- love it! I also adore Tobin.
Arthur- cute, Art is a nice nn.
Edmund- I've been warming to this lately.

We have an awful lot in common :). I pronounce Adie as A-Dee, well basically just like the letters A and D.And the name Bandit I came across first for Gerard Way's daughter, and trust me at first I hated it. Over the past few weeks I've thought about it a lot, it's grown on me some how enough to appear on my favourites.I know it seems weird Gerard and Billie Joe being together but I love the name equally as much right now, both also have a lot of meaning and the names anyway, so I love the names.

Bandit is sure interesting mixed in among those other names. What's the story behind it?

River -cute

Julia -okay
Melinda -nmsaa
Mellisant -better than Millicent actually.
Summer -dated
Audra -McDonald. Yes.
Charlotte -cute
Erica -nms. I used to have a bully named Erica so that dislike is probably person and means the same is still fine despite what I say.
Gemma -cute, cuteDamon -The only Damon I've ever known has looked like a corpse from a funeral homes for years- always dressed nice, but pasty and stiff and silent. Not a great association.
Merrick -very nice
Cyrus -meh, no thanks
Marcus -cool
Valentine -love it!
Mars -cool in the way that i would like to meet someone named this, but i wouldn't use it myself
Raymond -no thanks
Nicholas -sure
Rowan -like it
Robin -cute
vote up1
Mellisant is very cool. Can I ask where you got this spelling from, and if you would use a nickname?
vote up1
I got it from a book called "Pangur Bán the White Cat" by Fay Sampson. It's the name of the heroine Finnglas's horse. Millicent has surely had a bajillion spelling variants over the years and I think the settling on Millicent is totally arbitrary, and Mellisant is just as legit, considering the name derives from Amalasuintha and Mellisant isn't more different from that than Millicent is. It's even closer to Mélisande / Melisende. (I do not know why the link to Mélisande does not work, but the link to Melisende does, and it's linked properly from there)I would probably use the nickname Mellie (or Melly, or Melli, not sure what spelling I like most). Not that my husband would ever have agreed to use the name, heh.

Elijah Jonathan - The "zha" running into a "juh" sound is a bit off, though I like the names individually.August Noah - I've never been a fan of the name August (especially since I keep picturing month-names as feminine), but this is a nice combo.Leo Alexander - Distinguished, respectable, perhaps a little sarcastic. Great name.Micah Jarrod - Not to crazy about this spelling of Jared, but I suppose it does look better alongside Micah. Nice sound altogether, though.Thomas Asher - Sophisticated without being too "letterhead."Archer William - Don't like any "arch" names, I'm sorry.Riley Ezekiel - Riley is so youthful compared to the historic Ezekiel that the combo is startling at first. Eventually, though, it grows on you.Jack Carter - Honestly, this looks like the first and last name of perhaps 100 American males; probably a good number in the U.K., too.Cairo Malachi - Love Malachi, dislike Cairo as a name.Hugo Oliver - I'd prefer Hugh Oliver, actually; the Os running into each other are a bit... mushy.
Lilia Adele "Lili" - Like with Hugo Oliver above, the consecutive As "mush" together; though the individual names are pretty. "Lili" also looks rather cutesy - I think Lily would be just fine as a nickname.Willow Sarah - The pretty yet popular Sarah is a good foil for the rare, witchy Willow. I like this one!India Sinead - I don't like Indie at all, since it doesn't sound like a name to me but rather like indie films and the Indy 500. But India Sinead, despite being two totally different genres (kind of like Riley Ezekiel), has a really great flow.Ariana Holly "Ari" - Very "liquid" combo, and I'm not sure the names actually go together. Ari is a cute nickname, though.Sasha April - See my note for Lilia Adele (though I like these individual names less).Zoe Scarlett - Cool name.Aurora Hazel - Less liquid combo than Ariana Holly, but Aurora is seriously one of the most liquid, most difficult names to say. At least for me. My mouth trips all over the Rs. I like Hazel, though.

LOL at your comment on Brogan!Of your list, the only one I could really see myself using is Olympia. If I were French, maybe Thierry.I had an aunt in my stepfamily named Bertha who passed away two years ago - she went by Bert. For the longest time I thought Bert was a nickname for Roberta (since that was much more common when she was born), until she told me, "Nope, it's Bertha. You can see why I go by Bert." She didn't like her name at all.And her sister's name is Magdalena. I remember once sitting in the living room several years back with my dad and stepmom, and their names had come up. My stepmom just shook her head and was like, "Bertha and Magdalena... who *does* that to their kids?!"I miss Aunt Bert.
