Emil is probably usable but I don't like any of the other boy names. Excelsior is ridiculous and totally unusable.Emmeline - Love it, but I think it would be confused for Emily/Emmalie all the time, since it is much less popular.
Estrella - I like this with the spanish pronunciation (I know someone with this name). However, the anglicised prn. sounds forced to me.
Easter - Not usable, it would be like being named Christmas.
Esperanza - Quite like it, but I wouldn't use it due to the length and lack of nicknames.
Effie - Cute, but I think it's too cutesey to use as a full name and I don't know what it could be short for.
Ermengarda - the "gard" part makes me think of prisons. An ermine is a really violent, horrible rodent. It makes me picture some sort of rodent jail. Also I think it has some harsh ugly sound which are not at all feminine.
Elisabeth - Nice, pretty common but could be cool if you used an interesting nickname.
Eva - Love it. Love Eve even more.
Erzulie - NEver heard of it, not a fan

Emil - I love this name pronounced the French way - Ay-meel. I do not care for EEmil, as I've also heard it said.
Ellos - dislike
Excelsior - this is fabulous for a horse or a superhero!
Errol - sounds like an old geezer to me
Enkil - I haven't heard this before. What does it mean? I don't like the sound
Emiliano - LoveEmmeline - Love, love. Emmeline Pankhurst, my hero!
Estrella - I don't like it
Easter - charming and old fashioned
Esperanza - I like the meaning more than the sound, prefer Esperance, or just Hope
Effie - I love this as a nickname. For Elisabeth maybe?
Ermengarda - I don't want to be rude but hell no!
Elisabeth - Classic and dignified but not a personal favourite
Eva - I don't like it. Or Eve, or Evie, or Ava. Each to their own. I would never choose any of these
Erzulie - this makes me think of vodou. I like the way it sounds. Much nicer than Ursula

XD Geezer....more affectionate than derogatory I'd say, though context is everything I guess.Effie has been used as a nickname for Elizabeth (and other names too) here in England, going back to 1400s at least. I think it's lovely. Euphemia....not so much!!! Although it is a lovely meaningCiao!

Hi !!!!Erzulie is an Haitian Vudu goddess of all about femininity in particular love.
I read about it in a book because I like Haiti and its culture. There are so many names that once were also gods and goddesses (Freya, Brighid, Seth, Athena...). Why not Erzulie? XDYes...I would not use it because is not my culture.
But it could be an interesting name for the right person.Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Emil - is a good name. I kinda prefer Emilio.
Ellos - I am reading this as "ellos" meaning "them" in Spanish! Struggling to read it any other way.
Excelsior - haha. fun middle name...
Errol - kinda cool.
Enkil - hm. new to me, interesting to look at but I hear "ankle" and "uncle"
Emiliano - nice.Emmeline - I find it boring, but it's a nice name.
Estrella - rather Astraea, a similar sound but a less word-y name. It's ok. Estela is nicer IMO
Easter - you know, I like this alright. I think it works.
Esperanza - nice name.
Effie - old lady to me
Ermengarda - nice, might not be easy everyday.
Elisabeth - yawn
Eva - nice
Erzulie - Is this a form of Ursula? It's interesting.
