HelpWhat would you name five sons and one daughter?
Combos, single names, whatever. You choose. :)
Order them in the way you think is the most pleasing.
In this hypothetical situation, these would be your only children, and your only opportunity to use names.

Oooh, so many great names in there! Peregrine is not my style, but Pippin is awesome. Asher Flynn is perfect. Raphael Silas is very nice - although I actually think Silas Raphael would flow even better.
Do Thea and Aurelia rhyme? When I say them they kind of sound matchy.

So delightfully nerdy, that bunch. :)
Felix Barnaby is great.
Are you sure you don't want to add a Rupert in there?

Well, I know Rupert is definitely "my style", but for some reason I just can't like it. I don't think it's awful, but it doesn't appeal to me.

Eliseo is really cool, I've never come across it before! All your names have a very nice Renaissance feel to them.

Yay for Mattea!
I vote for Rafferty Miles (good combo, btw!)
Mainly because Taggart sounds like Braggart and that's not really a good thing to be.

Felix Asa is so soft and wonderful. Is he grown up? Can I marry him?
Elias Abel is full of spunk and life and probably has a frog in the pocket of his muddy overalls. :)

Wow, so great. I like Emmanuel and August a lot. The whole set is downright picturesque, though.

Wow, I actually like them all. My favourite is August. But they are all great and a really nice set together.

Graham and Abraham...hmm, they look alike and yet the sound is different. I like it.

Today they would be:
Agnes Anna Isabelle
Theodor Kjell Alexander
Axel Per Maximilian
Lucas Kieran Isidor
Sebastian Isaac Vilhelm
Kasper William August
One honoring name in each combo (Anna, Kjell, Per, Isidor, Vilhelm, August)

I think you have very developed taste, but I think you should consider the spelling Lukas. It is so much more consistent with the other names, and so much more masculine. Lucas seems like a puppy, and I have trouble picturing it on a mature adult. Unlike Lukas, which just seems German and masculine. Strange the difference one letter can make in feel.

Yeah, one letter makes a huge difference. I don't like Lukas though. To me it's boring and "cold" in a way that Lucas isn't. Lucas is sweet and friendly.
1
Lucas and Theodor together are really great.
Lucas Kieran flows really well.
Kasper William August is a very handsome combo.

That is an amazing combination of names. The only one I don't like is Ptolemy. The rest are great really like the different combinations as well.

JP? Nice! I like the initials and I like that it's not what I would guess: Jean Pierre.
James Madison is 16 times better than Nicholas Jude, in my humble opinion.

I was looking for yours because you tend to be all about the girls. Finally I get to see more than two boys for you. :)
I'm not a fan of Aurelian, but the combo is quite nice. I really like Ezra Patrick.
Grover is cool, but I'm not loving the flow of the combo... Hmm...
Grover Patrick Isidore?
Patrick Aurelian?
Grover Bram Isidore?
Aurelian Giles Patrick?

Haha yeah I'm... Really bad at boys names.
I wasn't happy with the Grover combo either. I love Isidore, but I think Grover needs something a little more grounded with it.
I usually just pair Felix Matthias with everything, so when I have to name more than one, I'm really scrambling for middle names!

I will include my two DS's IRL:
Jasper Emmanuel
Jethro Zion
Felix Elioenai
Asher Israel
Moses Elior
Daisy Eden Ruth
Choosing the girls name was so difficult! This is the combo that I would choose today, but on another day it could be different.

When I consider names, I try to think both realistically and unrealistically, and about how it would interact with an individual personally, professionally, and also merely in a "fun" atmosphere. But to reflect upon hypothetical real children with such pragmatism, for someone who does not plan to have any, is difficult.
To give it a go...
Edmund Gilbert
Henry Severus
Benedict Enoch
Ivan Sage
Eliseo Durante
Lydia Marina Susan
But even with those, I have hesitation. They do not spotlessly work together, and I am but a fickle being. My taste for female names is generally very minimalist, sometimes gender-neutral or "masculine," and yet the names I've rummaged through for this (with attempted objectivity) show more stereotypical femininity. Its an interesting perspective.

At the moment ...
Damon Marcus, Cyrus Valentine, Audra Julia Iris, Adrian Merrick, Raymond (Ray) Francis
Alternate boy names that didn't work in combos today - Robin Conrad Alexander Sylvan Thomas
I only get the one girl so she gets 3 names. But, I wouldn't really give 2 middles IRL. Alternates: Amy Alexandra Virginia Jasmine Charlotte Edith

It makes me so pleased to see Mars and Gwen mentioned. I adore them both.

Those are my top names for each gender. They may exist together someday :)

I almost put Mary Keturah for the girl, but I can't not favor Alice above all. Also having to split up the combo Henry Samuel is not easy for me.
