We have different tastes in names but I'll do my best to be constructive!!

Aurora Grace nn. Rory - I like Aurora, but I'm not a fan of virtue names.
Anastasia Georgina nn. Annie - this just doesn't sound good to me. And I'm not a fan of either name.
Ariella Katarina nn. Ella - I like the nn Ella but I don't care for either of these names.
Cadence Michelle nn. Cady - Again, I just personally dislike both names, but this flows well! I do like Cady though.
Talia Cadence nn. Tally - I prefer Tally over Talia. Not a fan of Cadence.
Emaline Susette nn. Ema - Not a fan of either.
Vaslissa Marie nn. Lissa - I'm not even sure what to think about Vaslissa...reminds me of Vasoline. Marie is too old for my taste.
Zinaida Anya nn. Zina - LOVE Anya!! Zinaida is not my taste - and it would always remind me of the Casey Anthony saga.
Lillith Faith nn. Lily - Lillith is nice, not a fan of Faith as it is a virtue name.
Jacline Olivia nn. Jackie - I prefer Jacqueline. Olivia is lovely as a mn.
Elena Kiera nn. Leny - This doesn't flow well. Don't much care for either name.

Andrew Caden nn. Andy - Andrew is a nice, solid name. Caden sounds childish to me though.
Dmitri James nn. Tri - Don't care for Dmitri and I don't like this spelling at all. I've never cared for the name James.
Joseph Robert nn. Joe - This for me is just a no. I'm not sure a name could be any more plain.
Benjamin Parker nn. Ben - Benjamin is just okay for me. Parker is nice though.
Tyson James nn. Ty - Not a fan of Tyson, reminds me of Tyson chicken commercials. Again, not a fan of James.
Ezekiel Joshua nn. Zeke - Joshua is again a nice, solid name. Not at all a fan of Ezekiel or any nn that goes with it.
Nathaniel Jacob nn. Than - Just not liking this one.
Oliver Michael - Oliver is wonderful! Michael is just not for me.

Sorry if I offended with any comments!! We just apparently have completely different tastes in names!

Aurora Grace nn. Rory - I really like Aurora but not so much with Grace. Aurora needs something really soft as a mn without a strong `r` sound imo. Aurora Lily, Aurora Camille etc.

Anastasia Georgina nn. Annie - LOVE Anastasia! Not crazy aabout Georgina or the nn Annie. I think something shorter would work better, the two names compete with eachother. Anastasia Eve, Anastasia Ruby etc.

Ariella Katarina nn. Ella - Ariella is not so much my style but this combo is rather pretty. I prefer Caterina.

Cadence Michelle nn. Cady - I don`t care for this at all. Cadence is trendy. Michelle is past her prime, very 70`s!

Talia Cadence nn. Tally - Talia is cute. It`s fresh & spunky. Again I don`t like Cadence and it pulls the combo from cutting edge to trendy. Talia Josephine, Talia Corinne.

Emaline Susette nn. Ema - I much prefer the spelling Emmeline. Emmeline Susette is nice.

Vaslissa Marie nn. Lissa - Not liking this at all. Vaslissa sounds like some kind of STD or something. Not at all attractive imo. Marie bores me to death.

Zinaida Anya nn. Zina - Again I don`t like this either. It looks made up. The flow is off too. LOVE Anya! It makes an interesting nn for Anastasia!

Lillith Faith nn. Lily -I actually kind of like Lillith, it`s a nice alternative to the popular Lillian. I wouldn`t pair it with Faith though as both names end in `th`. Lillith Grace works ok.

Jacline Olivia nn. Jackie - I don`t like this spelling of Jacqueline at all. It also feels really dated especially with the nick Jackie which is very 70`s. Olivia is nice but rather popular. I prefer Livia.

Elena Kiera nn. Leny - I like both names separately but together the flow is awkward.

Andrew Caden nn. Andy - Andrew is ok but I wouldn`t but Andy dates it. Caden is ultra trendy and not at all my style. The names feel really mismatched.

Dmitri James nn. Tri - I prefer Dimitri which is a guilty pleasure for me. I think it could work on the right kid but you should probably be of some kind of Eastern European heritage (or Russian).

Joseph Robert nn. Joe - I love Joseph it has family significance for me & it is such a classic. The combo flows well.

Benjamin Parker nn. Ben -Benjamin is nice despite it`s popularity. I do prefer Bennett. Parker is not my thing. I hear park-her.

Tyson James nn. Ty - Mike Tyson and Tyson chicken. I would avoid this one.

Ezekiel Joshua nn. Zeke - I like this! Zeke makes for a cool nick. I think I would prefer Ezekiel Joseph or Ezekiel Jacob.

Nathaniel Jacob nn. Than - Ehh.. It`s decent enough just doesn`t do much for me.

Oliver Michael - LOVE Oliver but Michael is bland. Oliver Jude is my personal favorite. Oliver Jonah, Oliver Joseph.

Is Tri supposed to be pronounced like Tree?
