Alright, I sat down and did some serious thinking and mixing and matching and I'm pretty happy with these! I made a point not to reuse names, or else they would just be different combinations of the same five names, haha. WDYT?

Girls:

Amity Noelle x5
Quincy Violet
Isla Genevieve
Aubrey Juliet
Emilia Charlotte
Elliot Alexandra
Cassia Josephine
Lucia Natalie
Zoey Adelaide
Lola Caroline


Boys:

Elliot Alexander
James Renly
Camden Elias
Gabriel Joseph
Seth Nolan
Spencer Evan
Ellis Damien
Joel Isaac
Zachary August
Jude Mathias

(Yes, I realize that Elliot Alexandra/er is basically the same name, but I really like it for both. I'm never too hung up on the masculinity or femininity of names...)

[Remy Hadley]

I don't think I have 10 names on both my girls and boys names lists combined! Hehehe, I used to be the opposite. Its having a real baby to name and sharing a list with Mike thats killed it lol.

Anywayy, done rambling. Heres what I think of the list! <3

Amity Noelle - its not my style, but I do see the beauty in it I can picture a cutie pie little girl!
Quincy Violet - Violets on and off my list, beautiful <3 Quincy's unique! I actually considered it for my boys for a short time
Isla Genevieve - drop dead gorgeous!! I love it <3
Aubrey Juliet - Very beautiful, I love Juliet especially
Emilia Charlotte - I love it!!
Elliot Alexandra - I do love Alexandra, sorry I'm not a fan of Elliot on a girl <3
Cassia Josephine - Do you pronounce Cassia as cass-ee-uh, or cash-uh? Just curious, I like the name a lot and I have "cash-uh" as a thought on my list <3 Both so lovely though
Lucia Natalie - I love the two together, beautiful! Same with Lucia, is it lou-see-uh or lou-sha? <3 Again, both beautiful to me!
Zoey Adelaide - Zoeys so spunky and cute, I really like it! I'm always back and forth on Adelaide, its so pretty but I always have personal reservations about it <3 The combo is really nice!
Lola Caroline - I am head over heels for Caroline!! Its just such a beautiful, classic name and I adore it <3 Lola isn't my style at all though unfortunately. Can't seem to get the Lolita association out of my head <3

Elliot Alexander - I love Alexander! I'm not huge on Elliot on a boy either lol. I met a boy named Elliot and it suited him perfectly so I have a great association on it, but just not my style I suppose!
James Renly - Renly is unique, I like it I think. Though not a name I'd use personally. James is another I have personal reservations about <3
Camden Elias - I do love Elias out of the "el" names for boys, I just love it! And Camdens been growing on me <3 It just has a handsome, manly feel to it I think!
Gabriel Joseph - timeless name, very nice!
Seth Nolan - I'm not a fan for whatever reason. Not sure why <3
Spencer Evan - Spencers growing on me, I kinda like it <3 Evan's NMS <3
Ellis Damien - I know a Damian and he puts a fabulous association to the name, I love it! And Ellis is very handsome
Joel Isaac - handsome <3
Zachary August - the names seem to suit each other well, I like Zachary's on Mike and I's list <3
Jude Mathias - I loove Jude, though my friend basically read Jude the Obscure to me (a classic?) and DON'T read it if you want to continue liking Jude!! He was a sad man and kinda made the name feel sad to me. Long story short: its a great name lol. And Mathias is super handsome, love it <3

I like your list, mainly! Very nice!

I like these okay:
Quincy Violet
Emilia Charlotte ( I prefer Charlotte Emilia)
Lucia Natalie
Zoey Adelaide
Lola Caroline
Zachary August
Gabriel Joseph
Elliot Alexander

I really like these:
Aubrey Juliet
Seth Nolan
Spencer Evan
Joel Isaac

[-SassyCassie-]

I like:

Cassia Josephine
Lola Caroline
Lucia Natalie
Aubrey Juliet
Jude Mathias
Joel Isaac
Gabriel Joseph
Seth Nolan
Spencer Evan

Whew anyways I really adore the names Jude and Seth as well as Lola and Aubrey. But if I'd have to choos emy two favorites are Lola Caroline and Jude Mathias.

Jude has always been a strong flowing name and Lola is super cute every time I say it. None the less a pretty nice list!

*Ratings: Below 5 means dislike it. 5 means I like it. The higher then 5, the more I like it.

Girls:
Amity Noelle - both names are nms, but I think this is a really good combo. No repeating sounds and the 3-2 syllable count gives it a pretty cadence 7/10
Quincy Violet - I dislike Quincy, especially on a girl. Violet is lovely and I adore it as a middle name. I really like the initials Q.V. Really cool. 5.5/10
Isla Genevieve - absolutely stunning. Both names are gorgeous. <3 10/10
Aubrey Juliet - I've never liked Aubrey, but I adore Juliet, especially as a middle name. This combo flows really nicely. 6/10
Emilia Charlotte - really pretty, but it sounds too much like Emilia Clarke for me. That's probably just me though. I doubt a non-Game of Thrones fan would get the closeness. Both names are stunning. <3 9/10
Elliot Alexandra - I actually kind of like Elliot for a girl. Alexandra isn't my style, though I adore Alexander. But I don't dislike it by any means. I don't like how both names have strong "l" sounds at the beginning. 6/10
Cassia Josephine - I also would like to know how you are pronouncing Cassia. I only like the Cass-ee-uh pronounciation. Very pretty combo. 9/10
Lucia Natalie - Not sure how you're pronouncing Lucia either. Both ways are pretty. Natalie is nice, though I tend to prefer Natalia. 7/10
Zoey Adelaide - love! Lately I've been prefering the Zoe spelling, but I still like this. Adelaide is nice and classic and making a comeback. Very modern but not trendy combo. 8/10
Lola Caroline - I like this a lot! Both names are great. I must be the only person in the world that doesn't care about the Lolita association with the name (or even Lolita itself). Caroline is pretty and classic and I adore it. 8/10


Boys:
Elliot Alexander - I like this more than the girl verson. 6/10
James Renly - love!!! James is my favorite boy name and although I generally prefer it as a middle name you can't go wrong either way. And Renly is just awesome. I have it on my own list. <3 10/10
Camden Elias - not my style, but a nice strong combo 7/10
Gabriel Joseph - Really nice. I love Gabriel a lot. Joseph is hit or miss with me. It can be great in the right combo. 7/10
Seth Nolan - Seth is great, but Nolan is nothing special to me. I think Seth would be best with a longer middle name. 5/10
Spencer Evan - I adore both names for boys and girls so for that it reads a little unisex to me, but I'm weird Really good combo. 8/10
Ellis Damien - I prefer the combo reversed. Damien Ellis has a really nice flow. Love Damien! 7/10
Joel Isaac - surprising love since both names are on the shorter side. Joel isn't my style, but it works in this combo. Isaac is one of my faves <3 8/10
Zachary August - great combo! I love Zachary, but unfortunately won't ever be able to use it as one of my mom's best friends has a son named Zachary. August is nice. I usually prefer Augustus, but August works in this combo. 8/10
Jude Mathias - looooove. Really strong and cool. 9/10

Favorite combos:
Girls: Isla Genevieve, Emilia Charlotte, Cassia Josephine (all three would be a gorgeous sib set!)
Boys: James Renly, Jude Mathias, Zachary Augustus (another good sibset! Although Joel Isaac would fit better I suppose haha)

Overall I think all your names are really nice. Every name flows beautifully and I could see all the names paired together as various sibsets (with the exception of Elliot Alexandra/Elliot Alexander of course ).

Thank you guys so much for your thoughts!

Remy -
I pronounce Cassia a little bit between the two? It kinda sounds like cass-yuh. But I actually just said it out loud and my accent turns what I hear in my head pretty much into cash-uh, so I guess cash-uh. But I do find that a bit harsh. Idk I love how the name looks and how I hear it in my head, I just can't make my mouth say it right, haha. Ah, maybe I'll have to put that name on the back burner for now.
I pronounce Lucia loo-see-uh.
The Lolita association really isn't a problem for me! I would probably even use the name Lolita, if I liked it.

Nike -
I think Charlotte Emilia is pretty too! But I tend to prefer Emilia over Charlotte, so I'd want that as a first. But there's always the possibility of falling in love with a combo that has Charlotte first! Any thoughts? Charlotte Alexandra seems nice...
And I'm glad you like Quincy for a girl. I think it's really pretty and actually quite feminine (which doesn't stop me from liking it for a boy too, haha).

Cassie -
Ahh I know I think Lola is just adorable! I can picture the sweetest little girl with the name, but I still think it would age well.

Alyssa -
Haha, yeah, the QV initials are pretty neat, I didn't even realize that. I just thought the names sounded nice together.
Ah! I might have subconsiously made a name that sounds like Emilia Clarke, because now that you mentioned it, I'm seeing it too. But, come to think of it, I might kind of like the name Clarke for a girl...but not Clark. And I also wouldn't name a kid Emilia Clarke, haha. I may be obsessed, but not to that level...
Mm...I see your point about Elliot Alexandra/er. But I like the flow otherwise. And I've been attached to Alexander forever. And since I'm loving Elliot so much lately, it's hard to give up Alexander for a middle. Idk. Suggestions for other middles? Hmm...
Ah for some reason the CASS-ee-uh pronounciation of Cassia sounds weird to me, but loo-see-uh doesn't; cuh-SEE-uh might be more fitting for me since I don't much like cash-uh either, but that's the pronunciation that comes out of my mouth when I try to say it the way I want. Haha man all these pronunciation problems with Cassia, I just want to use it because it's so pretty, why does it have to go being so difficult!!!!
Right there with you on not caring about Lolita.
Yeah, I have to have the right combo with Joseph too! But it's my dad's name, so it gets extra points in my book, haha.
Nah, I like Spencer and Evan for girls too! I just don't mind using them for both!
I like Augustus in theory, but any time I try to use it it just feels...wrong. Idek how to explain it. Who knows, man.
And now I super want to have triplet girls so I can use those combos, because holy crap you're right, they go together perfectly.

Ahhh thanks again, ladies, it's nice to have input!
