Glad to see Hazel and Grant. Patrick is okay, Shiloh for a boy particularly bad.

Hazel - cute. prob. one of my fav throwback names, but about to get (or is it already?) annoyingly commonShiloh (m) - not my fav, but prefer it on a boy as herePatrick - like itGrant - niceJayce (m) - prefer it spelled Jace so it doesn't look like Jay-see (although maybe that's what his name is, who knows)Talae (?) - interesting...tah-lay? tah-lie? prob. the first. I suppose i'd get used to it, but initial reaction..no.Mereidi (?)- okay. it could grow on me. pron. MER-eh-dee or mu-RAY-dee? maybe they were going for a blend of meredith and merida? or it's a typo of meredith. that's what it looks like at least.Dante - nice

Its meant to be a variant spelling of Jace, but like you I see Jaycee as wel.
I learned Talae is a female. I heard the parents have a Thai background.
Mereidi is definitely not a typo. But, I spent a long time trying to figure out how it might be pronounced.

I like Shiloh for a boy, actually. Hazel is nice too.
Dante is just terrible.
I'm kind of intrigued by Mereidi.

I've always liked Shiloh for a boy. In fact, when I was a teenager I was surprised that some people use it on girls.

I'd actually never heard of the name before Jolie/Pitt used it, but from the first time I heard it, it sounded like a boys name to me.

I didn't cringe at any of those!!I actually quite like most of them. That's unusual for newborns for me these days.

Hazel is beautiful.Grant and Patrick are OK but not my favourites. I won't even mention Talae and Mereidi. I would guess girls for both.
