First, Lately I have really been crushing on Nelle and Nell. I love to see it in use. I hope it pops back, and not just as a nickname for Penelope.
Cecilia, Hyacinth, and Franka are oh so lovely imo. I really like them.
The others are certainly beautiful names, in fact there is nothing on the girls list that I do not like.
Giulio is fantastic from the boys! I have a soft spot for G-names in Italian and this is a version of Julius, so I am even more smitten. ;)
Marko is a great spelling and such a fresh name for back then. Pretty cool.
Eugenio, Milos and Clement also get a positive vote from me.

I really like Mayla. Never heard of it before. Mayra was one of my favourites when I was a kid, I lost interest in in it with time. This one reminds me of it but it sounds more melodic.
Marko Marcovich made me smile ("We really like the name Marko, no matter what our last name is") I actually know at least 2 people with names like this. I think I wouldn't do it but they are fun to say.
