I don't like any of the names that could suit both genders. I prefer Sidney for girls because I used this name for a character in a video that I've made in college and the name suited her at least a bit.I'm not a fan of Phoenix because it's just a bit too over the top for me.

From your list, I like Noam best. The meaning of 'pleasantness' makes it appealing to both genders.
I prefer Dara on boys than girls, mainly because it's an Irish name to me + plus it reminds of Dara Ó Briain (whom I don't really care for).I don't really hate any other names from your list but I'm not a fan of Dana or Skylar.

I don't like a lot of names for both boys and girls. Usually, when I like a name, even if it's considered unisex, I like it for only one gender. However, there are a few names I like equally on boys and girls.Sequoia
Seren
Shiloh
Dakota
Sage
RowanApparently I'm less opposed to nature names on both boys and girls.

From your list, I like Sequoia best. I prefer Rowan more for a girl than a boy because it does, to me, look slightly feminine and the rowan tree adds to the feminine appeal.I don't really hate any of the other names but I'm not a fan of Sage.

For some strange, unknown reason, I'm starting to like Jody more for a boy than a girl. Apart from that, I like Kendall best (it's not in the top 500 in England & Wales, so it's all OK for me).The name that I really hate from your list is Jayden. It's so awfully popular for boys and it doesn't really fit it for a girl in my opinion.

From your list, I like Alix best and I prefer that to Alex.
I like Tierney (though not as much as Alex) because it reminds me of a teacher assistant at my high school, whose surname is Tierney, that I really like and get on well.The name that I really hate is Taylor. It's bit too popular for me use it.
