I guess I'll do what everyone else did...

My Ideals: A name should be gender-specific, spelled correctly, and legitimate. For me, it should also be a little unusual, off-beat, or underused while remaining inside the bounds of these categories. In short: it should be interesting, but not dumb. No one should have a boring name---but no one should have a stupid name, either.

Examples

Girls: Scarlett, Georgia, Eloise, Clementine, Estelle, Talulla

Boys: Atticus, Byron, Ambrose, Lucian, Theodore, George, Henry

My Name Ideals

Must not be made up

Should have some personal meaning to me

Should indicate sex of the owner

personally, i like unisex names for boys [adrian, jude, schuyler...]

and more masculine type names for girls [brody, micah, kye...] 

i like the name julianna, by the way.

just not too crazy about jory....

Ideals: Plain, Simple, Spelled right. Common but not over popular. Basically something every recognizes and will age well.  No boys names on girls. We're okay with unisex names for the most part.

Girls: Holly, Elizabeth, Erica, Ruby, Amy, Melissa

Boys: Jared, Nathan, Ryan, Blake, Adam.

1) Gender discriminate (No daughter of mine will be named Charlie)

2) Correct Spelling (Madisyn?)

3) I like seasonal names. (Noelle or Holly for a Christmas baby, April for an April baby, Liberty for a 4th of July baby)

This. Though I would say "not overpopular" rather than uncommon. Some names I love are fairly common, just ideally not overused. 

FWIW, two of your choices are NMS but I love Julianne - beautiful!

Do you mean name ideas?  Or actually ideals?  I'm confused.
