Baby Names
Need some opinions on two names!
Okay so I just found that we are expecting twins! Of course, since I am only 6 weeks, we do not know the gender of the little ones yet but we will find out soon! I have came up with two different names for each gender. Please let me know what you all think. 
BOYS
Ashtyn Shane Kennedy
Landon Colton Grant
GIRLS
Caroline Gracie Nevaeh
Ashlynn Gabriella Faith

Re: Need some opinions on two names!
First of all, congrats on the twins!!
Are you definitely going to give each one two middle names? Are they family names? Unless there's a reason (family tradition, etc.) I tend to think that's overdoing it.
I like your boy names, though I would spell Ashtyn as Ashton... with a "y" it looks like a girls name to me for some reason.
I like your second girls name, but your first, I don't like Gracie (sounds too nick-namey for an official name) Grace would be fine though. And I just flat out don't like the Nevaeh trend. But that's just me.
Also, if you have BG twins, don't do Ashtyn and Ashlynn. Way to matchy-matchy.

First of all, get rid of Nevaeh. Do you realize that everyone makes fun of this name? Kind of like Kate Gosselin's haircut.
Secondly, it's spelled Ashton. Spelling it Ashtyn is girly and makes you look illiterate.
Otherwise, all of the names are very nice.

Please don't spell it Ashtyn if you use it. Otherwise they're nice names (except Neveah)
I was gonna highlight what I agreed with in this post until I realized I'd be highlighting everything. LOL.

Do not like - Ashtyn, Gracie, Neveah, or Ashlynn
Do like Kennedy, Colton, Caroline and Faith
I'm not crazy about Ashton as it is, but I really dislike it with a y. Not a big fan of Shane, either. I like Grant, and Landon and Colton are NMS personally but are fine names.
Girls, I like Caroline and Gabriella. Gracie is OK, too. Nevaeh is really horrible. And I don't like Ashlynn.
Ashton is OK. Ashtyn just looks silly and misspelled. If you're going to use this name, please spell it Ashton.
Ashlynn is OK too -- I wouldn't use it, but it's not bad. But if you are expecting boy/girl twins, don't use both Ashton and Ashlynn, because that would be way too "matchy."
Grace would be OK as a middle name, but Gracie sounds too nickname-ish.
As far as Nevaeh goes, PP said it best -- this is a name that a lot of people make fun of, and you will want to take it into consideration.
In general, I think these names are pretty long. Is there a reason that you want two MNs?
Ashtyn Shane Kennedy -Like Ashton(spelled this way) Shane. . not a big fan of Kennedy
Landon Colton Grant- I would drop Colton. . Landon Grant is nice though.
Caroline Gracie Nevaeh -i would like Caroline Grace better. . not a fan of Nevaeh
Ashlynn Gabriella Faith- I woould either go with Ashlynn Gabriella OR Ashlynn Faith. . . not all three together
If you really want two middle names, go for it but I think these sound better (I did not like your double "on" sound with LanDON ColTON so these are some alternatives:
Landon Shane
Colton Grant
Ashton Kennedy
for girls:
I like Caroline Faith and Ashlynn Grace better BUT Ashlynn seems trendy to me while Caroline is classic....I think your boys names go together well but not so much your girls names. Just my two cents

Ditto many of the others:
Please use Ashton. Spelling it Ashtyn just makes it looked misspelled. No- using a "y" does NOT make your baby "special" or "uneek".
Gracie seems young. Grace is nicer.
Why the 3 names, though?

Honestly, I have never heard anyone make fun of this name except on here. Granted, this name isn't popular where I am, but it's my husbands favorite name for a girl, so it's one of our options and I could care less what other people think because we will name our baby what we want and people will just have to live with it. Plus, in this situation it's a middle name and the second one at that, so in all reality she won't be using that name all that much anyway.
For the original question - I personally think all of the names are nice and wouldn't change any of them except for the spelling of Ashton because the y does tend to make it look feminine....

Started our exploration into the world of international adoption June 2012. We have no idea what this is going to look like but we are excited to find out!
I dislike the spelling of Ashtyn-very girly. I'd stick with Ashton, even though the name itself is NMS. I love Shane as a mn. Not a fan of Landon Colton Grant.
For your girl names I like Caroline. Gracie is too little-girly for my taste and I don't like Nevaeh AT ALL. I like Faith as a mn, but I don't like Ashlynn or Gabriella.
Congrats on your twins! How exciting!
Like: Ashton (but using a 'y' definitely makes it look girly and dumb), Kennedy, Landon.
Caroline, Grace (Gracie is ok as a nickname), Gabriella.
Dislike: Shane, Colton, Grant, and Faith.
Hate: Ashlynn and Nevaeh (avoid this at all costs!)?
I actually like all your names, except ashton w/ a 'y' looks girly to me.
Gracie is really popular right now though..so if you don't like trendy names i'd scratch this one off the list.
And i know alot of ppl hate Nevaeh, i think b/c it's newly "made up"..but every name started somewhere so i don't get the bad rep it has, i like it alot..
So don't let ppl discourage you if you really love it.
