I love Eve, Evelyn and Eva, but not Ieva
I like Peggy as a more interesting nn for Margaret than Maggie
Lucy is a life-long favourite, but Lucia is too fancy
Ember, Skylynn and Wren do not please me at all

---

David is great: it's my son's first mn
I love Tom as a nn for Thomas, but Tomike is only suitable in its own language/society
Chip is a silly nn
Max is very good; Maks, not at all
Fabian, I associate with a forgettable singer from the early vintage days of rock. Not a happy thought!

---

Tru, Abadan and Lesane are probably passable; Iggy as a nn for Ignatius is awful, but so is Ignatius

Ieva - I like Ieva! It is on my PNL :)
Ember - prefer Amber.
Peggy - I don't like.
Skylynn - I really don't like.
Lucia - prefer Lyutsiya. Russian form of Lucia or short for Revolyutsiya ("revolution").
Wren - nice.

---

Jason - don't like.
David - don't like.
Tornike - cool.
Chip - don't like.
Maks - there is a music person I listen to remixes of Kolomyyky who is called Maks Shoom. I think of him. My first cat was also called this.
Fabian - prefer Florian.

Tru - don't like.
Abadan - city in Iran. Ok. I see "dan" which is "glory" in Tatar and I like that :)
Iggy - don't like?
Lesane - how to say? leh-sah-neh? ok. leh-seyn? don't like.

I like Lucia, Jason, and David. One of my favorite names is David.

Ieva: I like it better than Ava, for sure.
Ember: Prefer Amber; Ember just sounds silly.
Peggy: Overweight middle-aged lady with terrible over-processed hair.
Skylynn: It's better than Oaklynn but that's not saying very much.
Lucia: I like it but the fact it can be pronounced three different ways is a deal-breaker. I like the pronunciation Loo-SEE-ah best.
Wren: Flaky and insubstantial.

Jason: Can't go wrong with this.
David: Or this either.
Tornike: Nothing with torn in it and I have no idea how to say it.
Chip: Like Sonny or Little Man or Junior. In other words, lazy.
Maks: It's the same sound as Max, which is the most generic dog name outside of Fido or Rover, which nobody even uses.
Fabian: Wimpy.

Tru: Tru-TV.
Abadan: Makes me think of the old song Abacab.
Bure: I think you have an odd obsession with Candice Cameron-Bure. Her name keeps coming up in pieces in so much of your writing.
Iggy: Maybe for an iguana if you couldn't think of something better.
Lesane: Le Sane and Le Insane.
