Stand-out faves for me:
Mabel Susannah - perfection!
Eleanor Blythe
Daisy Caroline - I'd probably go for Caroline Daisy
Beatrice Jane
Jane Eloise
The boys are trickier. Really only Gareth William as a combo, though I also like:
Morgan
Joseph
Benjamin
Conrad
Emrys
Gregor
Only one possible problem, and maybe it's just me: Mercy Antoinette looks remarkably like 'Merci, Antoinette'. Otherwise, nice list!
Mabel Susannah - perfection!
Eleanor Blythe
Daisy Caroline - I'd probably go for Caroline Daisy
Beatrice Jane
Jane Eloise

Mabel Susannah - This is lovely. I don't even really like Mabel, but this combo is just so nice. Susannah is one of my favorite names. Susannah Mabel kinda works, huh?
Louisa Bess - Oh I love this so much. I think you might have just made me a new favorite Louisa combo.
Olive Catherine - I'm not in love with the flow. Olive isn't my favorite and I prefer Katherine.
Eloise Pearl - I think Eloise is charming but Pearl just seems so naggy and nasal.
Agnes Jewel - Agnes is really a great spunky name. Jewel is not.
Edith Caroline - Edith isn't a favorite, but this combo is tasteful. A lady's name.
Elsa Clementine - Hmm. I'd probably be excited to meet one in real life, but it's a bit too Hollywood for me to like for my own child.
Eleanor Blythe - I like this. I forgot I liked Blythe!
Daisy Caroline - I've never been crazy about Daisy (haha). It's sort of babyish and I feel like it'll be so dated to this time. I love Caroline, obvi.
Emmeline Pearl - Oh Emmeline. I really, really love it. I wish Emily and Emma weren't so popular, even though I love them too. I've already expressed my feelings about Pearl.
Frances Opal - I love Frances, but Opal, nope. Oaffish.
Honor Catherine - Very nice.
Beatrice Jane - Lovely. Jane Beatrice even more so.
Iris Catherine - I like it but it doesn't make me swoon like, say, Louisa Bess or even Beatrice Jane.
Jane Eloise - I am all about Jane lately, but I'm not loving it paired with Eloise.
Junia Margaret - Junia. Hmm... I like June more I think. Margaret I love.
Margaret Lily - I love Margaret but not Lily, which I find weak.
Clementine Fay - Not really a fan.
Mercy Antoinette - Yikes, this is too rich for my blood.
Bess Olivia - It's fine in theory, but I don't love Bess as a first name and I don't love Olivia because it sounds like litter and liver. Ha.
Opal Guinevere - no all around.
Rose Cordelia - never have liked Rose. Cordelia is cool but dramatic, and really a lame character I think.
Stella June - Never have liked Stella but this is a nice combo.
Louisa Bess - Oh I love this so much. I think you might have just made me a new favorite Louisa combo.
Olive Catherine - I'm not in love with the flow. Olive isn't my favorite and I prefer Katherine.
Eloise Pearl - I think Eloise is charming but Pearl just seems so naggy and nasal.
Agnes Jewel - Agnes is really a great spunky name. Jewel is not.
Edith Caroline - Edith isn't a favorite, but this combo is tasteful. A lady's name.
Elsa Clementine - Hmm. I'd probably be excited to meet one in real life, but it's a bit too Hollywood for me to like for my own child.
Eleanor Blythe - I like this. I forgot I liked Blythe!
Daisy Caroline - I've never been crazy about Daisy (haha). It's sort of babyish and I feel like it'll be so dated to this time. I love Caroline, obvi.
Emmeline Pearl - Oh Emmeline. I really, really love it. I wish Emily and Emma weren't so popular, even though I love them too. I've already expressed my feelings about Pearl.
Frances Opal - I love Frances, but Opal, nope. Oaffish.
Honor Catherine - Very nice.
Beatrice Jane - Lovely. Jane Beatrice even more so.
Iris Catherine - I like it but it doesn't make me swoon like, say, Louisa Bess or even Beatrice Jane.
Jane Eloise - I am all about Jane lately, but I'm not loving it paired with Eloise.
Junia Margaret - Junia. Hmm... I like June more I think. Margaret I love.
Margaret Lily - I love Margaret but not Lily, which I find weak.
Clementine Fay - Not really a fan.
Mercy Antoinette - Yikes, this is too rich for my blood.
Bess Olivia - It's fine in theory, but I don't love Bess as a first name and I don't love Olivia because it sounds like litter and liver. Ha.
Opal Guinevere - no all around.
Rose Cordelia - never have liked Rose. Cordelia is cool but dramatic, and really a lame character I think.
Stella June - Never have liked Stella but this is a nice combo.
I like Alden, for whatever that's worth. Not "use it" like it, but I knew a little boy named it and thought it was really excellent as surname names go. It didn't hurt that his mom claimed it was a relative's surname.
My favorites are Margaret Lily and Iris Catherine. They're both gorgeous.
I also like:
Emmeline Pearl (if you're using the -line pronunciation)

Eleanor Blythe (don't care for Blythe but this is beautiful)

Susannah
Caroline
