I'd love opinions on future names. :)

I'm not pregnant, and probably won't be for a few years, but I would love opinions on my top 5 girl names and my top 5 boy names. I've always had a love for names and their history and etymology. I've had some of these names picked out since I was 12 or so, haha. 

Top 5 girls:

Adelaide Elizabeth (Addie) - I know the nn is becoming really popular, but that doesn't bother me.

Eloise Cordelia (Ellie) - Same with the nn as above.

Hadley Kate

Josephine Adele (Josie)

Sarah Elizabeth 

Top 5 boys:

Asher Finn 

Benjamin Charles (Ben)

Charles Henry (Charlie)

Elijah Christopher (Eli)

Reid Alastair/Alasdair

    Top 5 girls:

    Adelaide Elizabeth (Addie) - Love this one.

    Eloise Cordelia (Ellie) - This might be my favorite.

    Hadley Kate - I'm not fond of the name Hadley. It also reminds me of the Sookie Stackhouse books.

    Josephine Adele (Josie) - Very nice.

    Sarah Elizabeth - Too plain, but pretty and classic.

    Top 5 boys:

    Asher Finn 

    Benjamin Charles (Ben)

    Charles Henry (Charlie)

    Elijah Christopher (Eli)

    Reid Alastair/Alasdair 

    I love all of your boy names.

    I like all of your girls' names except Hadley. I cannot imagine and adult Hadley, and I definitely think of it as a very "2011" name. I prefer traditional over trendy.

    I love the combination of Eloise Cordelia, but I don't like the NN Ellie. I think you should use the full name. Ellie is so overdone, but Eloise is fresh and beautiful. I wold also love Cordelia as a first name.

    I love all of your boy's names, but my favorite is Asher Finn. I also love the NN Eli, but I prefer Elias as a full name.

    All great choices!

    I am biased as I have a Hadley Kate. She was named after (female) relative on my H's side of the family, so I can assure you that the name ages beautifully into an adult.

    (Good thing my LO was born in 2010, since this name screams 2011! Stick out tongue)
