Winter on a boy isn't doing it for me, not even in a story. IDK, it just doesn't sound right. I consider it a feminine name.

Thomas is nice. Rain is cheesy, and I like it better on a boy (I know, mixed signals, here.) July is corny, and so is Harmonia. Sometimes when story names are so far outside the norm, they take me out of the story, even in a fantasy setting. I can see that happening with names like these.

Winter on a boy is unbelievable. Rain and July are awkward, Brooke and June or River and Sunday might be better. Thomas sticks out like a sore thumb, Tommy might be more believable - ish. Harmonia is just no, Harmony, or Melody, maybe.

I would change this to something like...
S: River
S: Tommie
D: Skye
D: June
D: Melody

Though IMO Tommie would still stick out incredibly.

They're all over the map. Thomas sticks out as the only completely normal name in the bunch, and Harmonia stands out as odd among Winter, Rain and July.
They're distracting and stagey.
