I like...Alexandra, but not Ethelleann what a mash-up.
Ariel
Aurora
Athena
Etta Rose
Felicity Marie, sister to Timothy, Dominic, Paul, Rose, Grace, Cecelia, Jessica, Katrina and Mary
Gabriella Joy, sister to Issac and Micah. I like all of these names.
Ivy Jolyn
Lucy Elaine
Mya Rae, sister to Andrew
Selena Marie
Selina Jovie
Arlo Vern- would prefer Arlo Vernon
David Elijah
Ishmael Wayne
Leo John - would prefer Jonathan
Mateo Ezekiel
Michael Allen, brother to Madelyn
Myles Chris- would prefer Christopher
Ronald Wayne
Rosin LaRoy
Samuel James
Trevor Allen
Vance Bradley
Waylon Otto
Weston Joe- would prefer Joseph
Wynston Wyatt
I like: Alexandra
Ariel and Aurora (but not as a combo)
Rayne
Athena Penelope
Alexander (but not as a sibling to another A name)
Alexandria
Ellie Mae (with a full name like Eloise-- just not Eleanor, because Mae is too cutesy for Eleanor)
Emma Jo
Etta Rose
Felicity Marie, Timothy, Dominic, Paul, Rose, Grace, Cecelia, Jessica (honestly for someone with 10 kids they did pretty good here. No annoying themes, all the names are spelled normally, they all have their own unique first initial, none of the names stick out in particular. I deleted Katrina and Mary because they're my least favorites and I'm also not a huge fan of the brothers' names but honestly they're all fine and none of them stand out as best, worst, or even 'different' than the others. Maybe Katrina and Jessica are a but Gen X and Mary is a bit Boomer but it's not drastic.)
Gabriella Joy
Micah
Hannah Marie
Isabella Opal & Gabriella Elizabeth (sounds good and looks good, but in reality I wouldn't like this twin set. Isabella and Elizabeth ate translations of each other and there is a risk that both of these twins would want to go by Ella, Ellie, or Izzy/Izzie.)

Alexandra Ethelleann grabbed right off the hop. Ethelleann is fascinating! At first I read it as a mashup of Ethel and Ann, but I think it's actually Ethel + Leann, and that's interesting! I like seeing Ethel get some love, so I'm a sucker for this one. Octavia Letty Ann is so nice, it's a shame they had to put the awful Lynken in front of it. Very interesting to see Lincoln starting the Girl Migration. I guess no surname is safe from that shift, I never would have thought Lincoln would be one to make the switch. VERY INTERESTING to see not one but TWO "Swayze" girls! It's finally happening - the surname name trend has reached peak saturation and now the truly wacky choices are coming out. I thought we were gonna hit this point like 15 years ago, but here we are. I'm ready to meet babies named stuff like Bacall and Kojak, let's do this.Lucy Elaine is so cute. omg.
Some are nicer than other, some more interesting, some pretty bleak. So, a few selections.
Coalton Andrew, brother to Ember, Ashlyn and Kindle: tell me theseparents aren't either firefighters or pyromaniacs
Did Ishmael Wayne, brother to Izaac and Izabella narrowly escape being Izhmael?
Rocky Lee, brother to Bailey (g) and Leia: great fondness for Lee, -ley and Le-; why Rocky, though? Haven't they watched the Rocky Horror Picture Show?
Rowdy Matthew Anthony. Er ... what if he turns out quiet and respectful? Ethelleann. Why not Ethelann - or is it Ethel Leeann, joined up?
Felicity Marie, sister to Timothy, Dominic, Paul, Rose, Grace, Cecelia, Jessica, Katrina and Mary! I like Felicity, Timothy, Dominic, Paul, Katrina and Mary. Rose and Grace are not to my taste, and I far prefer Cecily or even Cecilia to Cecelia. I wonder if the first 9 all have mns; I'm not surprised that the parents ran out and repeated Mary as Marie. A remarkable set anyway.
Journey Marie Lee: fondness for -ey, -ie and -ee this time; why Journey?
Klanci Jo, sister to Kenneth, Elizabeth, Jacqui and Olivia. Four pleasant, ordinary, familiar names - I'd have preferred Jacqueline but could live with Jacqui. And then - Klanci Jo! I suspect a second marriage.
The four female presidents are just hilarious: Lincoln Eleanor, sister to Kennedy (g), Monroe (g) and Carter (g)!
Sawayzie Mae and, a few down, Swayzi Marie. Unknown to this site: are they unique to Montana? There must be a reason, surely?
In order, I like the names Hannah, Louise, Anne, Katrina, Mary, Etta, Millie, Eleanor, Madelyn, Elise, Phoebe, Isabella, Marie, Elizabeth, Reagan, Gabriella, Stella, Morgan, Emma, Penelope, Lucy, Athena, Felicity, and Chloe for girls. I enjoy the names Trevor, Timothy, Jack, Bradley, Allen, Paul, Samuel, Kenneth, Matthew, Andrew, Ronald, Scott, Isaac, and Bryce for boys. From the combinations, I love Hannah Marie for a girl and Trevor Allen for a boy!

Anyone ought to be able to see the trouble with Klancie. Klan? Really?
Someone was really obsessed with ex-presidents. With four of them, that's got to be deliberate. And it's lame.
Rowdy would make a dumb name even for a dog.And may I just say that Boston Stryker Stone is ridiculous? It reminds me of the Boston Strangler, only this one goes around braining people with rocks.
Gunner, Dayton, Hunter, and Bow? Coalton, Ember, Ashlyn, and Kindle? Wow.I feel like Ethelleann is neat even though I don't like Leann. It almost seems like could be a fantasy character name but downhome at the same time.Armor, Raelyn, and Paris is the most interesting set to me.
It's mostly a big mess!
Wow, what an interesting collection of names! I likeAlexandra Ethelleann
Fritz, Ryder, & Emma Jo - what unexpected names for a group of siblings
Etta Rose
Mae Anne
Millie Tay first struck me as cute, but it feels a bit too similar to Military
Boyd, Everly, Ellis, & Palmer Lynn - preppy set but it works
Quincy & Landry for girls
Thena - this is the first time I’ve seen this, and I like itArlo Vern
David Elijah
Leo John
Rocky Lee
Rosin LaRoy is intriguing. I wonder whether they pronounce the first name like the stuff you put on a violin bow or like the surname Rosen.
Waylon Otto
Weston Joe - I have a soft spot for Joe as a middle name.The funniest name to me here is Armor Jon. Not Farmer John — Armor Jon!!!!
