Answer 1

for the girls names, i like Emily,Tiffany,Madelyn and Ashely.It sounds like you put some thought into Carina though:) hehe

for the boys names i like Ashton,Micheal,Aaron.Mathew,Alec and Alex.
I think you may be favoring marques though:) hehe

you know what you like,don't let anyone sway your opinion on a name...except maybe the father .
baby names are hard to decide on,lol...my poor daughter...her name came from a cup.
I made a list of all the girl names i liked.We sorted through and decided which ones sounded more like middle names.Then we cut them out, put middle names in one cup and first names in another.And hen drew one of each.This was about 16 hours before i gave birth...we were desperate.lol
The name turned out very pretty.

Answer 2

I like the names that you have chosen. I would suggest that you check the spellings of some of the names that you have chosen for the boys such as DWANE, MATHEW AND EDDY - these are unusual spellings for these popular names. Dwane is usually spelled Dwayne, Mathew is Matthew and Eddy is Eddie.

Also, I have a prob with people naming their children after celebs, as in your case Marques. Look at it from the child's POV. When the child gets old enuf to ask you why was he named so and so and you give the answer will the answer make the child feel proud? Think about it!

Good luck :)

Answer 3

From the s I like: Erica, Ashley, Diana, Mandy and Tiffany. Emily is kinda boring and i do not like priscilla at all.
From the boys I like ashton, ethan, marques, and christooher. Not Dwane!!!

Answer 4

emily- Cute name but every time I say it, it reminds me of a 5 year girl in pigtails. Not a very grown up name.

tiffany- I have always liked this name but it's too common now.

priscilla - Very uncommon. I think it's pretty.

madison - I have a cousin named Madison. I love the name. We call her Maddie for short.

Erica- Just beautiful!

Madelynn- The spelling makes it beautiful

ashley - This name is way to common but I still adore it.

diana- Ehh..not my favorite.

carina - Very cute

mandy- Love it!



ashton- I adore this name. If I had I son I would name him Ashton or Austin.

marques- Not sure about this one..the name itself is okay but the spelling could be kind of confusing if you were reading his name off a list or something..

dwane- HATE IT. yuck.

michael- Most popular name for boys right now. I love it.

eric- no no no.

christopher- Like it. Call him Chris for short though.

ethan- I love this name. You don't hear a lot of guys with that name either.

Aaron- I started hating this name when Aaron Carter came around..

eddy- Yeah sure. If you want your son to be a mechanic when he grows up..

mathew- Love it.

alec- hmmm..

alex - *cough*

Answer 5

Marques is cool. Ethan is a neat name too. Carina's good. All the other ones are SO common and boring. Diana, Tiffany, Emily, Erica, Mandy, Christopher, Eric, Michael, Aaron, and Mathew are epecially awful names for a child nowadays. Please be kind to your kid...

Answer 6

Emily Carrina
or
Ethan Michael

Answer 7

Emily is boring, Tiffany is tacky, Priscilla-Presley..wouldn't name a kid after her, Madison-Wisconsin...no, Erica--eeehhh?, Madelynn "Maddie" was my Yorkshire terrier, Ashley-too common, Diana--old school, but maybe old-school enough to be cool again, Carina a rich, *****. Mandy...a dumb, *****.

Ashton is weak and it means nothing, Marques-who wants to think this hard about one name? Dwane--you're kidding right? Michael--nice sound, good, strong, and over used. Eric--like it, Christopher--wussy, but if you call him Chris it is okay, Ethan--like it a lot, Aaron--it's okay, Eddy--seriously? Only if you use it as a short for Edward. Mathew--good name, most of them are wussy or gay, but then there is McConaughey to make up for all of that. Alec--so wanted to be an Alexander, Alex--suburban kid who also wanted to be an Alexander, also, too many girls named Alex now.

Answer 8

I only like Mandy for the girl. The other ones are too common now. I don't like any of the boys names. Ashton sounds too trendy because of Ashton Kutcher. Marques sounds too out there. People will always mispronounce it. Dwane is just...no. the rest are too common. Sorry, just trying to be honest.

Answer 10

Madison was the most popular name for girls in 2006 ( I have a niece named Madison). Personally, my favs from your list for girls are (1) Madelyn--- its a fairily unique name, and then (2) Madison. As for the boys names... Dwane is my oldest sons middle name so of course its a fav of mine. But all of the names you have chosen for a son are captivating. (You might consider Edward for a more formal name if you chose "Eddy". You can always shorten it to a nickname.) Whichever name you decide on will be great. Congradulations and good luck. Let all of us know what you decide!!!
