thanks so far.. just a few things..
~ antony can be spelt without the 'h' which i personally prefer
~ oatis can be spelt without an 'a'
~ elissa is spelt like that and is pronounced 'elle-iss-a' perhaps this is an english name that you might not have heard of.. not sure
just thought i'd give some feedback.. but so far so good.. thanks

I've always liked the name Jack. (I'd spell it "Otis" though)
Scott Blenkinsop? LOL (oh, that's bad!)
Rupert? No, no, no.
Antony's not bad. I don't think a short "o" sound for the first name sounds good with your last, so I'd nix Dominic, Oscar, and Scott. Jack gets my vote for boys.
For girls, I love Scarlett. Seems like too many syllables to have Hailey as the middle name, though. Maybe a single-syllable middle name? Scarlett Jane?
Sally Blenkinsop. Just sounds... like the ugly girl who's always home on Sat. night. Doesn't it? Ick. Hattie? Violet Blenkinsop?
Erica's not bad. No offense, but Blenkinsop's not the most attractive last name. (Hey-- I'm being honest.) So, be careful with first names. Giving her a grandma-sounding name, and pairing it with "Blenkinsop" is just... cruel. Picture it... Two guys. "So, who are you taking to the prom?" "Oh... I'm hoping for a date with Violet Blenkinsop....she's out of my league, though..." Riiiight. Or: "And we crown this year's Miss America: Hattie Blenkinsop!" No. Can't see it, can you?

You mentioned that Elissa is pronounced elle-iss-a. I have an Alyssa, so when I see Elissa, I think ee-liss-a.
Of your chosen girl names, I like the name Scarlett Hailey. It would also be very pretty if you switched them to Hailey Scarlett.
I believe Hattie has "old woman" written all over it. That is just the first impression I get when I see the name. I like the name April, but if the child isn't born in April, I feel that the name doesn't fit.
I don't like Violet Erin, but I like Erin Violet.
Sally Elissa doesn't sound quite right to me. Perhaps Sadie Elissa? I assume you are looking for an older, traditional name.
Erica Tilly is cute. I just wonder if it will sound so cute when your daughter is 25, and then 50, and then 75.
Scott Harry is probably my favorite of your chosen boy names. However, I think I prefer it as Harry Scott.
Dominic Rupert is also a very nice name.
Antony Jasper is nice, but I think he will have trouble with his name being misspelled and mispronounced. What about Anthony Jasper?
I don't like Jack Oatis or Oscar George at all.
Good luck with the baby name game and best wishes to you!

It should be Otis, not Oatis. The name bears no relation to the grain.
Also, Harry is a nickname, not a real, full name in and of itself.
I like Anthony Jasper Blenkinsop. I think Anthony is a nicer name than Antony.
Rupert and Otis are cute names, but I don't like the names you picked to go with them. Maybe Rupert Otis Blenkinsop or Otis Rupert Blenkinsop?
Erin Violet sounds better than Violet Erin. Erica Tilly Blenkinsop is cute. I agree with another commenter that Hailey is far too modern a name to go with Scarlett. Maybe Scarlett Elissa? Scarlett Alyssa? I think Scarlett Alyssa Blenkinsop is pretty.

Or how about:
* Jackson Cole Blenkinsop *

* Scott Harrison Blenkinsop *
I
NOW the GIRLS: I favor Sallie, Erika/Ericka, Elissa, Violet or Erin for a girl, and I think these spellings look better with your last name.

* Erika Violet Blenkinsop *
* Ericka Scarlett Blenkinsop *
* Erin Violet Blenkinsop *

Jack Oatis & Scarlett Hailey sound most appropriate with the last name.
Good luck!

From the names you have listed these are my fav:
Anthony Jasper with the "h"
Sally Elissa is cute because no one seems to use old names like Sally anymore.
