Baby Names

Narrowing down! HUGE list (SIA)

Please help me narrow down my ridiculous list before I present to SO... I don't want to overwhelm him. I'm not exaggerating when I say ridiculous, it's extensive. Big brother is Eli (Elijah Neal). I'm definitely open to suggestions/rearranging.

Boys:
Top pick is (currently) Ethan James
Everett Samuel
Myles Lee
Auden Neal
Everett Asher
Asher Cade
Grady James
Grady Campbell
Everett Reid
Everett McKinley
Everett Tiberius
Lane Tiberius
Rawley Samuel
Miles Reid
Otto (insert middle name here)

Girls:
DS would have been McKenna Lucille and I'm not sure whether I'd like to "use" it again, but it's the only name SO has approved so far.
Camille Harper is my top pick at this point.
Hadley Grace
Lainey Grace
Athena Noelle
Gemma Louise
Brynn Elizabeth
Tenley Elise
Finley Pearl
Hazel Camilla
Raleigh Harper

Re: Narrowing down! HUGE list (SIA)

  • Boys - keep Ethan, Everett, Miles, Asher and Otto.

    Girls - keep Camille, Gemma and Hazel.

  • From your boy list, I like Ethan, Everett, Miles, and Otto. 

    For girls, I like Camille, Athena, Gemma, and Hazel. 

    For both, I like various of your middle names more than others, and if you are open to mixing them around some more that could be cool.

    Keep Camille and like Athena/Hazel the best out of the list.

    Everett
    Miles
    Asher

    Girls, keep:
    Camille
    Gemma

    BOY
    I would keep Ethan James, Grady James, Grady Campbell, Miles Reid, Otto ____

    I would get rid of: 
    Everett Samuel (Everett is a city in Washington)
    Myles Lee (not sure if Myles is a legit variation of Miles, but even if it is, I would worry that it would be bundled in with the "y" trend)
    Auden Neal (I wouldn't give your second son the same middle name as your first)
    Everett Asher (same critique as above)
    Asher Cade (Cade is too trendy, IMO)
    Everett Reid (same)
    Everett McKinley (makes me think of mountains: Mt. Everest and Mt. McKinley)
    Everett Tiberius (same; also, Tiberius is such an "out there" name, that while good, I think needs to be paired with something very mainstream)
    Lane Tiberius (same comment)
    Rawley Samuel (never heard of Rawley before; do you mean Raleigh?)

    I suggest: Asher Daniel, Brennan Mackenzie, Dwight Benjamin, Levi Asher, Liam Tiberius, Nathan Lee, Nelson Tiberius, Oliver Reid, Raleigh Samuel, Reuben Samuel

    Middle name ideas for Otto: Caleb, Levi, Keenan, Shane, Keane, Benjamin

    GIRLS
    I would keep: Camille Harper, Hadley Grace, Lainey Grace, Athena Noelle, Gemma Louise, Hazel Camilla

    I would toss:
    McKenna Lucille (Mckenna is so trendy)
    Brynn Elizabeth (Brynn is also very trendy)
    Tenley Elise (Tenley is also very trendy)
    Finley Pearl (Finley is a boy's name)
    Raleigh Harper (Raleigh is also a boy's name)

    I would add: Elizabeth Lucille, Emma Elizabeth, Harper Elise, Adrienne Pearl, Amelia Harper

    FTR, Harper and Hadley are also trendy and male names,but for some reason, they don't bother me as much as the others.  I think that they will actually grow with the child as opposed to the others that seem perpetually "teen mom."

    Grady Campbell
    Rawley Samuel

    Girls:
    I Love:

    Extremely Dislike: (I get a cutesy, trendy vibe from all of these names)
    McKenna Lucille
    Hadley Grace
    Lainey Grace
    Gemma Louise
    Tenley Elise
    Finley Pearl
    Raleigh Harper

    Athena Noelle (not cutesy but just too strange for me)

  • Miles Reid or Ethan James

  • You ladies ROCK! There are some clear front-runners now. Thank you all for your input! This accomplished exactly what I needed it to!

    Boy names for girls don't bother us too much, McKenna is technically a boy's name too, but as society misused it, trends changed. We won't be naming any girls Benjamin though, haha. @JMU_Bride09 I meant Rawley, it's a tribute to a friend. @Bringmemylongswordho same letter sibsets aren't for everyone but we like E names. Our dog is Emma! ;)

  • They all sound like characters from a romance novel. Not that this is a bad thing but I think the majority of them are quite trendy.

    That said, Ethan James and Gemma Louise are far and away my favorites.
  • Boys:
    Ethan James
    Everett Samuel
    Myles Lee (Miles)
    Auden Neal
    Everett Asher
    Asher Cade
    Grady James (Grady reminds me of Gravy)
    Grady Campbell
    Everett Reid
    Everett McKinley (I know WAY too many girls named McKinley, so I can't picture it on a boy)
    Everett Tiberius
    Lane Tiberius (Love Lane, but not with Tiberius. Maybe Lane Samuel?)
    Rawley Samuel
    Miles Reid
    Otto Samuel, Otto Everett

    Girls:
    DS would have been McKenna Lucille and I'm not sure whether I'd like to "use" it again, but it's the only name SO has approved so far. 
    Camille Harper is my top pick at this point. 
    Hadley Grace
    Lainey Grace (I only like Lainey if it is a nickname for something. I cannot picture someone in their 30's named Lainey)
    Athena Noelle
    Gemma Louise
    Brynn Elizabeth
    Tenley Elise (Part of the girl -nley trend. Kinley, Henley, Brinley, blah blah blah)
    Finley Pearl
    Hazel Camilla
    Raleigh Harper
