Baby Name Opinions (Boys & Girls!)

in Baby Names
I'm just going to do one post for both since they're not that long (I hope!). We prefer uncommon names (though not uneek) and it's a bonus if they have Irish, French or Dutch background (not all of these do).
If you prefer different combos, that's fine- feel free to make suggestions. Middle names are family names (except Patrick/Flannery). Also, our last name is 3 syllables, and hard to flow with a lot of names. Sounds like Linshouer.
Boys:
Rhett Joseph Linshouer
Heath McKnight Linshouer
Penn Joseph Linshouer
Jacques (family name) Michael Linshouer
Holt Francis Linshouer
Delano Patrick Linshouer
Jude Michael Linshouer
Girls:
Cosette Flannery Linshouer (Coco)
Celine Frances Linshouer (too many s sounds? and Dion reference doesn't bother us : one of my favs!)
Demi Josephine Linshouer (I like the idea of this- my dad is Joe so this would be "little" Jo)
Delphine Frances Linshouer
Solenne Frances Linshouer (too many s's? but one of my favs)
Darcy Valentine Linshouer (don't mind P&P reference- but keep hearing "arsy Darcy" from Bridget Jone's in my head!)
Genevieve Frances (wordy?) Linshouer
Elaine (Dh's gma) Frances Linshouer
Honesty appreciated 
Though saying you hate them all doesn't really help me 
- give suggestions! TIA!

Re: Baby Name Opinions (Boys & Girls!)
Boys:
Rhett Joseph Linshouer - Not a fan. I keep thinking of Gone with the Wind.
Heath McKnight Linshouer - I do love it!
Penn Joseph Linshouer - I don't care for Penn as a first name.
Jacques (family name) Michael Linshouer - I love Jacques, but it sounds strange with the rest of the names.
Holt Francis Linshouer - I like it.
Delano Patrick Linshouer - I don't like Delano so much.
Jude Michael Linshouer - I really love this combo! Jude is at the top of my list.
Girls:
Cosette Flannery Linshouer (Coco) - Ick on Coco. It either sounds like a stripper name or a name for a little poodle... or a cereal. Not a fan of Cosette as a whole.
Celine Frances Linshouer (too many s sounds? and Dion reference doesn't bother us : one of my favs!) - I do love this combo! It doesn't bother me at all. Celine is a lovely name.
Demi Josephine Linshouer (I like the idea of this- my dad is Joe so this would be "little" Jo) - I hate the name Demi. It sounds like the name a SuperFan would give her daughter. It makes me question the motives of the parents.
Delphine Frances Linshouer - I think Delphine is a lovely name.
Solenne Frances Linshouer (too many s's? but one of my favs)- It does sound like a tongue-twister. I'm not a fan.
Darcy Valentine Linshouer (don't mind P&P reference- but keep hearing "arsy Darcy" from Bridget Jone's in my head!) - I'm really not a fan of Darcy at all.
Genevieve Frances (wordy?) Linshouer - Lovely name! Are you going with the French pronunciation? I think it sounds better with the French pronunciation of Genevieve.
Elaine (Dh's gma) Frances Linshouer- I think Elaine would be a lovely name on a little girl.
Favorites: Heath McKnight & Jude Michael and Genevieve Frances, Celine Frances & Elaine Francis.

I love jude michael!! love it
Jacques Michael is the only other one i would consider.
I dislike all the other boy names a lot!
Genevieve Frances is beautiful
Solenne is also nice
I like both prononciations of Genevieve so not sure yet. What if Solenne was with another MN? Less of a tongue twister?
And, sorry, but what is a SuperFan??? I have a good connection with Demi- it reminds me of a beautiful, talented dancer I saw once.
Thanks!

For your boy names, I like Heath the best.
For your girl names, I love love love Josephine and Genevieve.
I don't care for any of the boy names.
Genevieve Frances is the best of the girl choices. The others are NMS.
FET #1 Dec 2013 BFN
FET # 2 Feb 2014 BFN
No more frosties
IVF #2. September 2014
PGD yielded 2 perfect 5d blasts
SET November 9, 2014
Nov 23, 2014. Another BFN
Not sure where to go from here.
Of the boys, Jude Michael is my favorite, but I could really get on board with Jude and any other mn. Heath is nice too. I'm really not a fan of Holt - just sounds really harsh, like a cough almost.
As for the girls, I really like Cosette, Darcy, and Genevieve. Elaine is nice, but you could also jazz it up a bit with Elena. Celine is nice also. I think Demi is just okay - I wouldn't want the Demi Moore references personally. I don't like Delphine...can't explain why really.
Boy- Penn Joseph Linshouer
)
(Rhett makes me think of Rhett's syndrome
Girl- Solenne Frances Linshouer
I love Jude Michael! Heath is okay. I prefer Rhett as a nickname for Everett.
Demi Josephine is my favorite of your girl names. I also like Celine, Darcy, Genevieve and Cosette. But I'm not a big fan of the nickname CoCo.

boys: Rhett Joseph and Jude Michael are my favorite from your list. Another combo I think would be nice is Joseph Heath. IMO
girls: Demi Josephine, Solenne Frances, Genevieve Frances, are good. I like Genevieve the best out of those names though. Another suggestion would be Genevieve Elaine.
