I really like Miranda, Julia, and Keira. For mns, Louise and Reese.

I dislike Hazel (not a pretty sound to me), June (not a fan of month names), Lucy (though I like it as a nn for Lucia).

Keira Maeve
Julia Simone
Miranda Louise

Great list of names, there are so many I like! :) You can actually combine a lot of these to make a really nice first/middle name:

Jessica Louise
Allison Reese
Caroline Louise
Maeve Allison - one of my favorites
Julia Hazel
Keira June
Reese Allison
June Caroline
Hazel Jane - a favorite
Hazel Allison - a favorite
Hazel Caroline - a favorite
Jane Allison
Miranda Jane
Lucy Caroline - a favorite

I guess Maeve & Hazel are my absolute favorites.
My least favorite, as a first name, is Miranda.

I like them all, except Louise and Hazel. I don’t have a particular reason for disliking those two, just don’t care for them.

My favorites from your list are Lucy and Maeve.
Actually I like them as a combo...Lucy Maeve.

Allison Reese would be pretty, or as much as I dislike Hazel...Hazel Jane flows well.

Jessica -- Lovely. Jessica

Allison -- Since it’s a form of Alice, I like the more authentic Scottish Alison spelling. You can still use the nn Allie. Alison

Helen -- How refreshingly uncomplicated. Love it.

Caroline -- So graceful. Caroline Miranda, Caroline Juliet, Caroline Adele, Caroline Isabeau, Caroline Deirdre ("DEER-druh"), Caroline Eva, Caroline Aurelia, Caroline Maeve?

Maeve -- Take no prisoners queen in Irish myth. You could read her to bed with traditional girl-power tales. And it’s gorgeous. What’s not to love? Maeve Elizabeth, Maeve Anaïs ("ah-nah-EES"), Maeve Celeste, Maeve Linnet ("LIN-et"), Maeve Tatiana, Maeve Caroline, Maeve Isolde (or are two Celtic folk tale heroines too much)?

Julia -- Gorgeous. Julia Caroline, Julia Helen, Julia Margaret, Julia Margot, Julia Bryony ("BRIE-uh-nee"), Julia Eve, Julia Carys, Julia Morgan?

Louise -- As a first name? Is that legal? Seriously, it’s great to see Louise being considered as a first name. Louise Madeleine, Louise Victoria, Louise Clara, Louise Abigail, Louise Phaedra, Louise Marianne?

Keira -- Actually, the correct transliteration of Ciara is Kiera, not Keira. Ms Knightley’s parents have a lot to answer for. But any way it’s spelled it’s gorgeous. Kiera Juliet, Kiera Maeve, Kiera Linden?

Reese -- Only on a boy, spelled Rhys.

Miranda -- Gorgeous and unexpected. Miranda Juliet, Miranda Clare, Miranda Noël, Miranda Vivien, Miranda Lucy?

June -- Surprisingly nice. Sweet and uncomplicated, very friendly sounding. And the nn Junie is adorable. June Margaret, June Audrey, June Cecily?

Hazel -- Retro fun. Love, love it. Hazel Madeline, Hazel June, Hazel Margaret, Hazel Patricia, Hazel Meredith, Hazel Josephine, Hazel Gwyneth?

Jane -- Queens, authors, artists -- so many great images comes to mind. It has a still-waters-run-deep quality that I love. Jane Abigail, Jane Elizabeth, Jane Charlotte, Jane Eleanor, Jane Laurel, Jane Meadow, Jane Audrey?

Lucy -- Who doesn’t love Lucy? Lucy Matilda, Lucy Kate, Lucy Annabel, Lucy Caroline, Lucy Adele, Lucy Emmeline?

Jessica (Jessie) - very nice, especially with the nn Jessie. Jessica Violet, Jessica Eve, Jessica Alice

Allison - this sounds too old to me. What about Alice?

Helen - see above

Caroline - see above

Maeve - I think this would have pronunciation issues

Julia - I like this, very 90s. Julia Grace, Julia Alice, Julia Kate?

Louise - a bit on the boring side, but not bad. Louise Violet, Louise Evelyn, Louise Jennifer?

Keira - really nice, fits all ages. Kiera Jane, Kiera Seren, Kiera Hope?

Reese - hate this, sounds too masculine.

Miranda - not a big fan of this, a little dated

June - love this, but prefer it as a middle name. I also like April.

Hazel - doesn’t fit a baby

Jane - boring

Lucy - very cute. Lucy Violet, Lucy Faith, Lucy Victoria
