Although, I just had babies 5 & 6 less than a month ago and don't plan on having any more in the near future...you never know! Plus, it's just fun to think of names so please feel free to give your opinions on the names I like. They don't necessarily need to go with my kids names. I'm just looking for opinions. Thanks! P.S. It's a long list in advance!

Girls:

Scarlett - Like.
Elianna "Ellie" - It's ok, a little cutesy for my liking.

Regan - I like that you kept this spelling, but I still dont care for it.
Adeline - pretty, but I see it everywhere lately.
Madeline - popular, but Madeleine is one of my favorite names.
Taylor - too masculine for me, I love it for a boy. It feels trendy and overdone for a girl.
Juliet - beautiful, classy, timeless and goes well with your other children's names.
Blair - not a fan. I vastly prefer Claire.
Cassidy - I'm Cassandra NN Cassie and I REALLY prefer my name. Cassidy feels masculine and trendy.
Olivia - I wish this wasn't so incredibly popular, I DO love it. Maybe Livia or Liviana for Liv?
Winslet - I really really dislike this. It feels so overly trendy and awkward and I do not like the sound at all.
Isla - beautiful! Absolutely stunning.
Scarlett - not my favorite, not bad at all, but not one i love.
Elianna - Out of all the popular -anna names, this one I don't love. I prefer Liliana or Viviana.
Aurora - lvoe
Stella - cute
Seraphina - beautiful
Emma - love! I wish it wasn't so popular.
Mila - very nice
Boys:
Sumner - I see this being pronounced wrong a LOT.
Sebastian - very cool
Emerson - LOVE! I love seeing this on a boy, I have Felix Emerson Jude on my boys list.
Liam - cute, prefer it as a nickname for William.
Brady - not a fan.
Carter - not bad. I don't love it, but it's still nice.
Oliver - love, but it's getting very common place these days.
Sullivan - love
Jasper - Adore
Theodore - Adore
Remington "Remy"
Callum - very nice, not a favorite, but still a nice name.
Elias - I've seen this a lot recently, and I get why - it's very handsome. I still prefer Elijah.
Penn - too much of a nickname.
Darby - I grew up with a girl Darby and I always thought it was hideous. I think it's much more suited for a boy.
Henry - very nice, I love it, a top contender for a middle name after my grandfather, but it is getting quite popular.
James - ultimate classic, can't go wrong.
Anderson - I love this.
Emery - I love this! I love seeing it on a boy where it belongs.
Brighton - cute. not my favorite, but not bad.

Girls:
Regan- Its okay. Seems really "trendy" to me
Adeline "Addie"- love it.- Very sweet and old fashioned
Madeline "Maddie"- I love this too except not Maddie. Maddie is getting way overused.
Taylor- Its okay. I know a lot of Taylors that are my age so it doesn't wow me.
Juliet- Love! Such a beautiful name.
Blair- I like it
Cassidy "Cassie"- Its fine, just nms.
Olivia "Liv"- I like Olivia a lot but I'm just tired of hearing it. Love the nn Liv though
Winslet "Winnie"- I have a soft spot for Winslet since one of my favorite actresses is Kate Winslet. But the first time I heard it I giggled a little becuase its a total last name to me, but if you love it...
Isla- Love it.
Scarlett- Love it.
Elianna "Ellie"- I've never been a fan of Elianna. Too many vowel sounds I guess.
Aurora "Rory"- I like Aurora, its very princessy. I love Rory probably because of Gilmore Girls
Stella "Ella/Elle"- I love Stella, its seems very cute and vintage but I would refrain from using the nn Ella.
Seraphina "Finn"- I like Seraphina, it's very elaborate. I've never heard of Finn as a nickname for it however it seems very qirky and masculine comapred to Seraphina which is super feminine so I would avoid it. Maybe the nns Seri/ Suri or just Fee.
Emma- Sweet and simple. Love it. I don't think this name can ever be too popular. Its just so cute.
Mila- Very European sounding but I like it. Sounds like a fresh twist on Mia.
Boys:
Sumner- I think of an old politicians last name or maybe an old man's name. Nms
Sebastian- Like
Emerson- It has a very scholarly feel. Although I perfer it for a boy I should warn you its becoming more of girls name.
Liam-Love it. It would be my favorite if it weren't so popular.
Brady- Like
Carter- Nms. Seems trendy
Oliver- Love!
Sullivan- Nms. Its a perfectly fine name but I've just never liked it.
Jasper-Nms. Seems harsh to me.
Theodore "Theo"- Love! So cute!
Remington "Remy"- Nms. Way to preppy/ regal for me. Remy is cute but I don't think it ages well.
Callum- Love!
Elias- like
Penn- One of my guilty pleasure names
Darby- NMS. Too feminine
Henry-Love
James- Love!!! Its a classic
Anderson "Andy/Ander"- I like Anderson with the nn Andy. Ander seems incomplete to me with out the "s" in Anders (Scandinavian for Andrew)
Emery- Nms. I hear memory without the "m". Again, I should warn you that this is becoming a girls name
Brighton- It's alright.Violet Gray
Sad name-obsessed teenager and aspiring writer
GIRLS: Georgiana Rose, Josephine Ruby, Kate Evangeline, Eliza Rose, Anna Caroline
BOYS: Jack Henry, Oliver James, Leo Alexander, Finn Michael, Samuel Reid

Girls:
Regan - Not my style.
Adeline "Addie" - Okay; I can see the appeal, but it's not for me.
Madeline "Maddie" - Not my style.
Taylor - My name ♥ I like my name.
Juliet - Love it! Romantic, feminine, sweet and pretty.
Blair - I prefer Claire.
Cassidy "Cassie" - I actually like this, but that's because I like Cassie names. My favorite is Cassia.
Olivia "Liv" - Don't like it at all; bad people associations for me.
Winslet "Winnie" A guilty pleasure for me! I think it's so adorable! I just wonder if it will grow up well or not...
Isla - Pretty; I like it, but I don't think I would use it.
Scarlett - I prefer it Scarlette. The name is nice enough, but not for me.
Elianna "Ellie" - Don't like it; I'm not a huge fan of -anna names.

Stella "Ella/Elle" - This name bugs me for some reason; there's nothing wrong with Stella, I just don't like it.

Emma - Sweet and simple, I like it. I prefer the fuller Emmeline though.
Mila - It's nice, but not for me.
Boys:
Sumner - I have bad associations with this name, but even without the association, I don't think it has a nice sound to it.
Sebastian - I almost want to put this name on my list; my problem is the Little Mermaid association.
Emerson - I can't see this name on a boy; this name has gone to the girls for me. Emmett is still boy to me though.

Brady - I prefer Brad.
Carter - Not my style.
Oliver - I'm not a fan of 'O' names.
Sullivan - Don't like it.
Jasper - Too Twilight-y for me.
Theodore "Theo" - Nice.
