I personally love all of them. I have never heard Justice as a boy name though. I know two girls IRL with that name. Most of those are used as middle names too for some reason!
I like them all except for Liberty and Justice. I just wouldn't use more than one of them for your kids. Siblings named Hope and Faith would be totally cheesy.

while nms, I like them all- though liberty is a bit too... not a name?... for my taste.
A friend who works in a hospital actually said they always joke about babies named these names (grace, hope, mercy). She said about 95% of the time, the mom chooses the name because she almost died/near death exp./complications/etc... I was surprised, but she said rarely does she see those names given when chosen ahead of time. Not that this should sway you in any way- just thought it was interesting.
Faith is cool - thats my sister's name (no middle name). Liberty is too.... I don't know. I think as a teenager or young woman she'd have trouble with guys wanting to take Liberty from her... sorry ;-(
I think they are ok. Personally, I would lean towards those names more as a mn. Also, I agree with pp that I would not use them for a sibling set... seems a little cheesy that way.
My step-dad's family is strict Baptist, so a lot of these names remind me of them. I'm not such a big fan of this style of naming...maybe it's because the ones I have met are super strict religiously or their complete opposite. (that said, my name is Angel and I love it). I know a few boys named Justice and the spelling I never quite got, Justus, so it's not bad. Grace is pretty secular, so I think it speaks to everyone. It's also a really popular name, especially as a middle name, so more people are comfortable with it. I would avoid Liberty. Makes her sound like Wonder Woman.
Grace is pretty, but just too popular for me I love Hope and Faith. I wanted to name a daughter Hope, but with my last name it sounds like hokey pokey haha. All of the women named Joy that I have ever known are super sweet, but it is nms.
My cousin's mn is actually Liberty...but she was born on the fourth of July.
Re: Thoughts on Grace, Hope, Faith etc
I like Grace as a first or middle name. I really like Faith too, but mainly as a middle name. I wouldn't use it as a first name.
The others are nms. Liberty is the worst.

Liberty and Justice are way NMS.
The rest are very nice alone, but very cheesy as a collection.

My name is Hope and I always get compliments on it. I am also one of those babies who wasn't going to be named Hope until I almost didn't make it.
