    Do the names in my signature fit well together?

    So my favourite names are the ones in my signature, and I was wondering if there were any names that stuck out as not fitting in. Also, my naming style for boys and for girls is quite radically different - are they too different?

    The only names that stick out to me are Tristan, Noah and Liliana. Other than that your names have a very classic, vintage feel to them which I love.

    Tristan has always felt like a modern name to me even though its from the middle ages. Its coming back a bit now and it doesn't seemed to fit with your vintage type names, but it doesn't stick out too badly.

    Liliana, although frilly and pretty, always comes off as modern and trendy to me, and a little bit Latin, especially paired with the super trendy middle name Grace. It just seems off because Cora, Helena, Catherine, Mary and Emmeline sound so classic 19th century and Liliana Grace sounds like a child born in 2010.

    Noah is the same thing as Liliana. It's a nice biblical name but right now it seems modern and trendy. Noah wasn't used too often 100 years ago. I could see Edmund, Hugo, Henry, and Bennett as brothers but not with Noah because Noah is so "in" right now in the 21st century while the other names sans Tristan are more vintage.

    There not too different. But Liliana and Noah definitely stick out the most as being stylistically different. Other than that I think Cora, Helena, Catherine, Mary, Emmeline, Edmund, Hugo, Henry, Tristan, and Bennett make a pretty darn good sibset if you ever have 10 children

    The girls fit well, except for Mary. Mary is quite plain next to Cordelia, and Liliana.
    The boys fit well with each other and the girls, imo except for Tristan.

    What East93 said, Mary isn't glamourous next to the other beautiful names. Maybe Marian or Maren in place of it?

    Noah and Tristan are super common place in my area, they wouldn't fit with the other names here (the others would still all be considered unique), but that might not be so in your area. Noah seems to be rising though across the world, so I think it's the next Jack & Aidan. Love love love Jude. My son is Jude!
