I don’t mind Hayden, for a boy.
I’d prefer Holland for a girl, simply because I once met a Hollynd, and so it’s forever feminine to me.
I hate Harley, with an everlasting hate. It’s ugly, and sounds like I’m throwing up.

The only one I like is Hayden, for a boy. I know it's trendy in some countries, but it's not used where l live. l had a crush on one when l was a teenager, so l have positive associations.

Holland is just silly and Harley is half a motorbike, so Hayden! I taught a Hayden once, very pleasant boy, so the associations are good, but IRL I'd never use it: so many names are nicer.

Hayden - the fad is over but it's nice enough. Prefer for a boy, not shocked by it on a girl.
Harley - very motorbikey to me. I've met a girl Harley. It's ... okay ... sounds alright as a surname name, but I get a sort of a brassy vibe from it. Dorky as a guy name but not weird.
Holland - gp for a girl, don't love the land part. Prissy on a guy, rather see Harlan(d).

Not fond of any of them, but if I had to, Holland for a boy. Holland Anthony.

I really like Hayden, but I’d rather use Haydn. It feels really neat and I quite like H surnames as first names anyway. I’d use it for a boy: Haydn/Hayden Alastair William.

Holland is too place-y and I don’t like Hayden, I like Harley for a girl.
