    I'm sorry, I'm not a big fan of any of these. I do like Brooke, just not Brooklynn. I like Lia, but not Leah for some odd reason. I'd pick Carter off the boys list, but I'd toss the rest.
  • Loading the player...
  • The only ones I can stomach are Leah, Carter, and Emmett. The rest are blech to me.

    Leah

  • Leah and Emmett.  Leah is a great name.  Emmett is NMS but it's the best of your list.  All the other boy names are at best meh to me, and the girl names are just...no.

  • I hate all the girl names.

    Leah is a beautiful name. Definitely the winner for a girl. Of your boy names, I like Emmett then Carter. Brynlee is a hot mess.

  • Leah and Carter are by far the best off of your list.
  • Leah is the only girl name that is decent and legit. For boys I don't mind Kellan, Emmett and Carter.
  • I like Leah. I'm also the odd one out, though, because I like Rylan.
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • I love Leah.  For a boy I like Carter the best.

    Brynlee and Rylan both look like typos.  
  • I would choose Leah and Carter from your list- in my opinion they are both much much nicer than the others in their categories. But if Brooklynn could be Brooke, I would go for that!
  • Thanks for all the input! Leah is my favorite of the girls, but DHs least favorite :( We have a rough time agreeing on names, especially girl names. (We were team green with DS and didn't have a girl name picked out when he was born ... Would like to avoid that this time around!)
  • I only like Leah & Emmett.
    This.

    To the others I mostly made this face

    I like Leah, Carter, and Kellan. Emmett and Colton are okay, but nms. I don't like Rylan or the rest of your girl list.

    I could go for Brooke or Brynn. The -lee and -lynn tacked on is so very 2010s and will seem dated in a few years.

    Brynlee, Brooklynn, Mackenzie, McKenna...NO.  Please.
    Leah is very pretty.

    Carter. Colton, and Rylan are NMS, but not awful.
    Love Kellan.
    Emmett is all right...wouldn't pick it myself, but I won't side eye it.

    Edited because I copied and pasted stuff and then forgot to erase it.

    I haven't read through the responses yet but I can guess these names will not go over well on this board.  I think they are all very trendy and will seem dated in the near future.   Leah and Emmett are the only ones I really like from your list.
  • Leah or Carter :)
  • Leah and Kellan

  • Not Brooklyn, and especially not Brooklynn. 

    If I ever win the lottery, I will start paying people not to name their kids Brooklyn/n.

  • For your girl names, I think Brynlee was good but just Brynn is very sweet

    PP mentioned Rylan is good as a girls name & I agree.
