James Edward vs. George William vs. John David

We just told some folks we consider friends about the three names we’ve picked out for our son. Their response was "Why do you always give your kids such boring names?" Although we tried not to react to their comment much, when we got home we realized how much it hurts and truly, it has shaken us a bit. Our daughters are Anne Marie and Faye Louise. We’ve always loved their names and we really love James, George and John. We just need a bit of an impartial opinion right now. Thank you for your responses.

Help! I love the name Guinevere, but I can't think of a really good brother and sister name for her. Since Guinevere is so empowering, I want the next names to be powerful as well. Thanks, Genie!
Baby Name Genie:
You seek the Holy Grail of names. Let me help you in your quest. The brother of fair Guinevere will fight on foot with swords aplenty, but on his horse he'll surely lance a lot. Name him Edward for a regal name. A sister could be dubbed Katherine if greatness is what you desire.
