    Here are my thoughts

    Boy:
    Landon - not a fan
    Bastion - maybe shortened from Sebastion but not as a name by itself
    Dallas - dodgy 80's tv show here too
    Teirnan/Tynan (pronounced Tar-nan) - would never have thought to pronounce it that way so a bit confusing
    Luka - I love it
    Blair - I love it

    Girl:
    Lacey - yep
    Avalon/Ava - yep beautiful
    Dot - very much a nickname or kids name, can't see this as being the name of a successful woman in her 30's
    Abernathy/Abbie - nice
    Blair - I love it

    I like Blair for both boy and girl, it is an all-round nice name. Not so sure on the others, like Lacey though. Luka isn't bad but I might spell it differently.

    Isn't Avalon one of the airports in Melbourne? (sorry)

    I like Sebastian or Bastian for a boy and I LOVE Dallas, but for a girl.. I wanted Dallas but DP wouldn't have a bar of it!! Not Keen on the others.. Blair reminds me of loud music.. You know music blaring.. Lol.. Sorry probably not much help..

    My 2c:

    Boy:
    Landon - *shrug*
    Bastion - concerned about the teasing he may get, "Bastion's a bast%^d"...
    Dallas - for some reason I see this as more of a girl's name, don't know why. I'd end up nicknaming him Cowboy
    Teirnan/Tynan (pronounced Tar-nan) - a little bit boganish for me
    Luka - like it, also Lucas
    Blair - not a personal fan for a boy. Reminds me of Tony Blair

    Girl:
    Lacey - cute
    Avalon/Ava - either is sweet
    Dot - cute, but not huge fan. Short for Dorothy. Reminds me of old ladies or Dot & the Kangaroo (so sad)
    Abernathy/Abbie - OK with Abbie or Abigail, not Abernathy
    Blair - better for a girl, but still not a fan. Blair Witch Project reminder

    hmmm. sorry - just my personal taste. prefer the girls names overall. Any chance of using William as a first name?

    It sure is. It's also a car. But still a lovely name IMO.
