Answer 2

Girls:
Winnifred - 1 - HATE this name. Sounds very old and witchy to me.
Beth - 4 - Take it or leave it. Seems a bit dull.
Rose - 6- Sweet, but not a favorite.
Aubree - 10 - LOVE this name. This is on my top 5 list for my next child if its a girl. Very sweet!
River - 3- Would actually like this as a boy's name better than a girl's name.
Elle - 8 - Very cute sounding! Has a sweet sophistication.
Heidi - 5 - Okay, but not a favorite.
Boys:
Van - 2 - Don't like inanimate objects for names.
Emerson - 5 - A little too british sounding for my liking, but still cute.
Ollie -- 9 -- Love this name! Would prefer Oliver with a nickname of Ollie. This gives your son more options for adulthood.
Alexander (Xander) - 10 -- I love the name Alex, Alexander, and Zander. Don't like Xander with an X though. Zander Vincent is actually the name my husband and I would have named our daughter if she were a boy.
Peter - 4 - Too common sounding.
Jack - 4 - Too common sounding.
Gabriel - 9 - Love this name! Gabe is a cute nickname too!
