I like Brynn and Charlotte from your list

We have different taste, but my favorite from your list are Charlotte and Layla. The rest are completely not my style.

Charlotte is the only name on your list that I myself would use. The others aren’t overtly tawdry, but do give me a “second tier” vibe.

My faves are: Amber Charlotte, Layla Charlotte and Elise Tahlia.
Elise looks so much nicer to me than Elyse.

Amber - stereotypical dumb blonde or a stripper.
Andrea - Nice, doesn't personally appeal but there is nothing wrong with it.
Aria - Nice, getting trendy, I prefer Arya pronounced ar-YAH
Brynn - Is a male name
Charlotte - I'm positively sick of little Charlies but it's a nice name.
Elyse - Alright, always felt very bland. I vastly prefer Alice or Elisa.
Gina - Alright, I'd be very surprised to meet a little Gina I associate it with my mom's generation.
Heather - Fine, doesn't excite in any way.
Kayla - Insanely popular among my age group so it feels dated and boring.
Layla - Nice, I prefer the Laila spelling.
Madison - Is a male name and super overdone and boring.
Tahlia - nice.

I advise against Amber and Heather. I love Amber and dislike Heather, but both are very dated.I advise against Kayla. Dated and flimsy.I advise against Brynn, Charlotte, Layla, Madison, Aria and Tahlia simply because I dislike them. That leaves Andrea, Elyse, and Gina. If I had to pick one, I'd pick Andrea. I've always liked it, though I don't love it.

Amber: Love this one.
Andrea: Love this one too, and I think it is somewhat less tied to a particular area than Amber is.
Aria: Don't care for it; it's not easy to know how to pronounce it.
Brynn: Might be all right for a middle name but as a first it seems dull and heavy.
Charlotte: I see no appeal in this name. It's prissy and stiff and kind of grim.
Elyse: Never liked it, it sounds slithery and slick, and the spelling will be a nuisance.
Gina: Very cute.
Heather: Very pretty, though even more tied to the seventies and eighties than Amber.
Kayla: Love it. Might get a bit lost among the other Kaylas, Kaylees, Kaelyns, Katelyns and Makaylas, depending on your area.
Layla: It's nice enough, though extremely popular and might get lost with the other Laylas of various spelling plus the Lilys and Lilas and Lillians.
Madison: Not terrible but Maddies are a dime a dozen.
Tahlia: Looks like a mistake for Thalia or Talia, a nuisance to spell and pronounce.

My favorite of these is easily Tahlia. I like a lot of them but that one stands out as being especially beautiful.Ordered from favorite to least favoriteReally like or like:
Tahlia - Tahlia is my favorite Thalia spelling and Talia is my second favorite. Tali or Lia can both be good nn's.Elyse - I slightly prefer the spelling Elise. This name is very similar to Alice only it is less common.Andrea - I like the nn's Ann, Annie, and Andie. I especially like Andie.Aria - Very trendy right now but it is very pretty.Charlotte - Charlie, Lottie, and Lettie are all really good nn's. Unfortunately this name is very popular.Heather - A bit dated because of how popular it was but I only know a few of them personally.Amber - I have know quite a few Amber's, I go back and forth between liking it and finding it a bit too cutesy and dated.Layla - Not too common although at the same time fairly popular. It reminds me of Kayla but I like Layla a lot more and I doubt it will ever reach Kayla's level of popularity.
Okay
Gina - I know a lot of Gina's, I had a best friend with this name who is now Gene and I also have an aunt Gina. I prefer the name Regina which I would place in the "Like" catagory. I also prefer Gia since it is less dated.

Hi !!!!Amber 8/10 It is really nice but I prefer Ambra XDAndrea 4/10 dislike for a girl. I prefer Andreia, Andreea, Andreana, Andressa.Aria 7/10 It could be my style but I don't know why I dislike it. Maybe because it is a daily word here (air). I prefer Aura.Brynn 2/10 It seems a childish nickname sorry. I orefer Brent on a boy.Charlotte 9/10 I love all about this name. Elyse 3/10 I strongly dislike all Elisa names (Elisa, Eliza, Élise, Lisa, Liza).
After that this is a mispelling so..no.Gina 2/10 an elderly-lady nickname.Heather 8/10 it is beautiful and with a pretty sound. I prefer Erica though.Kayla 3/10 horrible. Just it.Layla 9.50 nearly 10 - one of my favourite names but only pronounced LIE-la.Madison 3/10 like Kayla I just strongly dislike it.Tahlia 5/10 It seems odd imo.
When I read it I only see another name: Thalia (the Muse). So I prefer it.
