Jeez, I don't like any of them!Oh well, guess with a heavy heart I'd plump for Kenna and Jakobe (though I prefer the spelling Jacoby but I'd keep the pronunciation of JACK-oh-bee).

MAGNOLIA - really like this one. I love the nickname options (esp. Maggie/Mags and Lia but you could also go for Nola or Mia too, see what I mean?) and I like that it's not a prissy-sounding floral name but is still pretty. JAYDE - I don't hate this. I could use it for a middle name. I prefer the traditional spelling, though.RYANN - I think Ryan is kind of nice as a unisex name. I get the adding an 'n' to make it more feminine thing, but I would rather use Ryan than have it be (or be mistaken for) ry-ANNE (which maybe this is, in which case I would not use it)TESS - I'd use it, especially for a middle name. It's short and sweet, but somehow serious, and I'm a sucker for a literary connection (even if it's a pretty depressing one).AADEN - Oh, the sadness of any original -aden names made annoying by the -aden craze. I still like Aidan and Hayden though, but honestly would pause before using them because of not wanting the association with the -aden's. I'd use a different spelling.BRENDON - prefer Brendan, but it's a nice name that I'm surprised isn't more used.GRAEME - Is actually my #1 boys' name so, yes, I'd use it! (but would have to coin toss over the spelling w/ Graham - being in the U.S., I'd probably use the latter because it's more familiar over here)

I would pick Astrid for a girl, as it is one of my personal favourites hence my username. And for a boy I would pick Immanuel.

I'd go for Astrid (because that's actually one of my favourite names) and Dario. I also like Tess.

I'd go with Judith and Immanuel. I really like them both anyway, as it so happens.Making combos from the list I'd say Judith Astrid and Immanuel Camilo.

Tricky! I'd use Tessa and Penelope, nn Penny - would that do?For a boy, Brendon and Graeme.I know you wanted one, not two, but in both cases there are really only two names I'd consider at all.

Astrid IrelandI dislike place names, usually, but Ireland is one of the few I can stand. It is a GP, though. Not sure I'd use it on an actual person, so I'd exchange it with either Amia or Avalyn.Lachlan DavonNot very fond of the double -an/-on sounds, but yeah.

Oh, no question! Judith Roxanne and Clyde Immanuel.

I'd choose Dario, it's pretty cool. For a girl, either Karly or Roxanne. Probably Karly since Roxanne is my own middle name.

Maybe you want include Aquiles, i think is really cute name for a boy. My son will name this :)Thank Usudaderaspersonalizadashombremujer

I haven't read other responses but I can see Astrid being a popular choice in either the first or the middle.Magnolia Astrid - Love both names anyway.Thatcher Corban - I like Thatcher normally. Corbin honors for me, so Corban would be one way to do that.

Astrid and Clyde. I really like Astrid and Clyde is pretty cool, in a stuffy sort of way.

Clearly Charity Princess and Thatcher Denzel

Ooh, Lachlan- it's also a family name, so it isn't unfamiliar to us, either. Jordy would be too Packer-y for me. (There's a player named Jordy Nelson.) Graeme or Immanuel are runners up.Now, ten, twenty minutes to pick a girls' name? None of them really jump out at me as something I'd use. I guess Roxanne. I do have a character in a series of picture books named Ireland, and Avalyn is too close to my niece's name. Judith is my late aunt's name. I never met her or my uncle Guy or cousin Peter since they were killed in a car crash long before I was born.

Magnolia and Lachlan all the way!

Astrid Magnolia and Branden ImmanuelAstrid is in my top ten anyway.

Tess and Lachlan. I genuinely would consider using Tess as a fn. Lachlan isn't one of my favourites but I like it and it's not unheard of here (UK). Massively popular in Australia so definitely usable.Astrid is nice too. Roxanne and Immanuel are GPs of mine.
vote up1
I'd definitely go with Lachlan, it's one of my favourite names. For a girl ai'd go with Magnolia so I could call her Maggie.http://www.behindthename.com/pnl/149886

Penny. I think it's cute. A negative is that it's a nickname and I hate nicknames as given names. On the other hand, I don't like Penelope. Which is why I'd never actually have a Penny. But for the sake of this exercise, if I had to, Penny.For a boy, Brenton. It's kind of manufactured and trendy sounding, but I like Brent, which is what I would call him.
vote up1
It's funny but I've never thought of Penny as a nickname before. I think of the coin first of all, which probably isn't the first thought for non-Brits (even though I know the term penny/pennies are used in the States). I know three people called Penny and as far as I know that's their full name.

Makena Tess & Lachlan GraemeI like Makena but only with this spelling- it has a different meaning & origin than McKenna etc.It's crazy to me how unusual Lachlan is in the states. It's uber popular in Aus.

I'd either go Roxanne or Astrid. Probably Roxanne though, less stuffy than Astrid. I do have a soft spot for Charity as well.Lachlan or Graeme for a boy, even if they'd both be a nightmare for people to pronounce. Thatcher might be okay if it wasn't so pretentious.
vote up1
I'd go with Roxanne and Darien. Although I also like Clyde and Judith so they're a close second.Combo-wise (just for fun) from the list, I'd go with:Roxanne Charity
Judith KennaDarien Clyde
Broderick Clyde
