The only name here I don't love is Imogen, because the sound doesn't suit my ear, but I respect the name and find nothing else wrong with it.

We have similar taste in names! The only real difference is that I would use James & Jane in a first-name capacity, otherwise they seem like filler. Also, I prefer Elena & Hugh to Helena & Hugo. Other than that... great list.

I prefer Josephine to Imogen. Willow is very popular at the moment and its not a bad name but I wouldn't have ranked it that high. Same with Cordelia. Hazel is a great name. Jane has the right rank. I much prefer Elizabeth to Helena.
Edmund is a lovely name. Alistair seems to be placed all right. Hugo is a great name very nice. James makes sense it would be a good middle name. Not surprised with William even though it is a very common name it is lovely and I would use it.

Imogen / Josephine 65% - like both; prefer and would use Imogen
Willow 67% - ludicrous
Cordelia 68% - one-owner name; dislike Cornelia, don't really mind Delia
Hazel 69% - too nutty
Jane (middle) 73% - yesyesyes
Elizabeth / Helena 74% - I used Elizabeth as a mn for my daughter; Helena has too many possible pronunciations and anyway I prefer Helen
Edmund 68% - better than Edward, not as good as Edwin
Alistair 69% - I used Alastair as a mn for my son, but I like both spellings
Hugo 74% - I'd use it readily as a mn
James (middle) 75% - mn, fn, it's a winner
William 76% - I'd use it readily as a fn

If you have a PNL (personal name list) set up on this site you can open it for rating by others. That's where she's getting the statistical info
