1. On my quest to update my lists I've come across a few names I never really considered before but can't get out of my head. Looking for thoughts/opinions and suggestions. Anything you can offer really.

Boys:
Simon - preferably as a mn. I never gave this a second thought, but I think it's really nice. It would age well. :)
Atticus - preferably as a mn. Really hard to come up with combos because I usually prefer more unique names as a fn with a more common/normal name as a mn...I don't like most common boy names a fn so that leaves Atticus paired with another unique name and it seems to be too much. I just can't find the perfect name to balance it out.
Gideon - fell in love recently! preferably as mn
Theon - preferably as a middle name, but as long as I can find the perfect combo I don't care if it's a fn or a mn. So hard to come up with names for it though since it's such a different sound

Girls: (all as mn, looking for really unique/pretty fn. No Brittany, Grace, Emma, Lily, etc.)
Charlotte
Juliet
Penelope
Arabella/Arabelle (willing to use whichever works best in the combo)
Elizabeth
Caroline/Carolina (willing to use whichever works best in the combo)

2. Still having trouble coming up with combos for Daenerys (although I'm about ready to give up anyway. I already have three other GOT names on my list. :P Too much?? lol) Really liking it as a middle name lately because how cool would it be? It's very unique, has a great connection and it's just really pretty. :wub:
So far I've come up with:
Daenerys Lucille
Amelia Daenerys (but I already have Amelia Catelyn which I adore. Which do you prefer?) - just made the connection that Emilia is the name of the actress who plays Daenerys ^_^ That might be a little weird!
Clara Daenerys
Daenerys Josephine
Daenerys Quinn
Daenerys Violet
Daenerys Maeve (too much 'ae'?)
Madeline Daenerys

that's all I can come up with so far! I would prefer fn suggestions for it, but I'm open to whatever. Also want to note that I if I were to use Daenerys, the spelling stays. I know it's different, but Game of Thrones is a fantasy show/book so it's a little out there. It's more of a GP name anyway.

3. Please take a look at my name list and vote! Any specific comments/suggestions you have, leave them below!

For every number: When coming up with combos I am open to one or two middle names. Whatever you feel would sound best!

Thank you to everyone that reads this/responds! Everyone's opinions and thoughts mean so much to me. :)

I adore Simon and Gideon for the boys! As for girls, I love them all except for Penelope. Penelope just isn't my style. I just voted on your name list! :)

I love Gideon and Simon! Atticus is ok and Theon is just....ehhhh to me.

I ADORE Arabella, it's my next daughters name (was going to be Magnus' name if he were a girl), Elizabeth, Penelope and Charlotte are very nice and the others just aren't my style.

I was never into Penelope before, but I just fell in love with the nicknames Penny and Nelly. :wub:
And thank you!

Theon is another name from Game of Thrones. I really should quit with all the GOT names haha! I also love that it means "godly".

Thanks for the responses! :)

Wdyt of Atticus Leo? I've had it on my list for a while, but I'm changing things up at the moment lol. I think it's sweet :-) I'm not a huge fan of Simon and Gideon, but Theon is cute. Atticus Theon? Jacob Theon? Might come back with some more combos later.

I like all the girls names except Penelope and Caroline, which I'm a little iffy on. What about Daenerys Arabelle? I have to go to class but I might come back and post some more later :-) Hope this helped a tiny bit at least lol.

I love Atticus Leo! I think it has a nice balance and flow. It doesn't feel like both names are competing for attention. I'm definitely putting it on my list! Thank you! :)
