Like and definitely could work...
Harper, Lilou, Cricket, Wilhelmina, Fallon, Luisa, Christabel, Estee, Virginia.

Boy's names...
Hadley, Lucca, Finlay, Leighton, Ariel (it's a gorgeous boys name, tacky on a girl!)

Too odd...
Otsana, Delphine, Faline, Cersei, Sansa, Perla, Royam, Kaplan, Callilou, Adrielle, Lirian, Prelidiana.

Trendy/Creative Spellings...
Braelyn, Mirah, Lyra, Eydie, Catelyn, Eevie, Bristol.


Combo's...

Lilou Seraphine is gorgeous!

Now for the boys names...

Love...
Luca, Henry, Cato, Talon, Roman, Felix, Mikhail, Gideon (not Giddeon), William.

Don't mind but definitely would work...
Damian, Kellan, Oliver, Landry, Callum, Deacon, Wolf, Fynn (prefer the normal Finn).

Trendy...
Renly, Syler (I like the sound but prefer Silas), Tennyson.

Dislike...
Efren (Ephraim would be cool!), Fidel

Luca William
Henry William
Silas William
Jasper William
Roman William
Gideon Silas / Gideon Henry
Felix Jasper

[lucystone]

My favorites:
Violet
Elodie
Edith
Eydie - Pretty, but prefer spelling of Edie. Your daughter will be constantly correcting and spelling her name all her life, which gets annoying very quickly.
Mirah - Nice. Prefer Mira. Again, the spelling issue.
Poppy - Love this for a nickname. Prefer a more formal first name - Patricia, Penelope, etc.
Emmeline(leen pronunciation) - Love this one.
Luisa - very pretty, and love the more classic spelling.
Isadora - Interesting take on the Isabelle/a fad.
Adelaide - Love it. Addie is a great nickname.
Cersei(seir-say) - Is this a family name? Just curious. It's been years since I've heard this name. Still like it.
Bryony - Pretty, but most commonly associated with Atonement, if that matters.
Eevie - Great nickname for Evelyn, but prefer Evie. Again, spelling issues.
Bristol - Ok.
Virginia(honor name) - Adore this one. Probably my favorite of the bunch.

Unisex:
Avery

Boys Short List:
Luca - Love it.
Henry - It's making a comeback in popularity, if that matters. It's a great classic name.
Efren - Prefer Ephraim/Efrem/Efram. Again, spelling and pronunciation.
Oliver - Love it.
Giddeon - Love this one. Prefer Gideon. Again, spelling.
Deacon - Great name.
Fynn - Finn. Otherwise, love it.

Combos:
Violet Willa Grace - Prefer Violet Grace. Willa seems disjointed.
Henry Luca - Love it minus Wolf.
Kellan Jasper - Eh. Ok. Not a huge Kellan fan, and I hate the Twilight association with Jasper, but it's still a good name.

Really, really, REALLY dislike:
Cricket - this is an insect, not a name for a beautiful little girl.
Primrose - Hunger Games. No.
Fallon - No. Just no.
Ariel - Little Mermaid. Dancing fish. Singing crabs. Murderous octopii.
Christabel - way too princessy and froo-froo.
Ophelia - Tragic character driven to insanity and a watery death by brother's pretended madness and father's death. Can't get around that, sorry.
Faline - Feline?
Perla - lingerie.
Estée - Lauder.
Cato - Kato Kaelin. That's all I can associate this name with, regardless of spelling.
Talon - Claw on a bird.
Fidel - Castro. No. No. No.

You've got some great names on your list! Good luck choosing!

Girls Long List:

Efren - Not a fan.
Oliver - Cute!
Landry - Don't like.
Roman - It's ok. NMS but nice.
Felix - It's ok.
Fidel - Like Castro? Not a fan. Too much of an association (though my fiance's uncle's name is Fidel).
Mikhail - I kinda like it but it's a little confusing. What about Micah?
Callum - Love!!!! I don't even have to see the rest of this list to know this is my favorite, haha.
Giddeon - It's ok. The double d is unnecessary.
Deacon - It's ok.
Wolf - Eh.. maybe as a mn. Too out there for a first.

William(family name) - A good strong name, can't go wrong!
