    Okay, as per your instruction, I'm going to be totally honest with my opinions Of course, they're only my opinions and you don't have to listen to me - I'll try to keep the "bad" ones to a word or two

    Cruz. Yick.
    Jett. It's okay, does it suit your surname?
    Felix. Sounds kinda old-mannish, but otherwise alright.
    Milo. Nup.
    Ethan. Loooove this name! It was on my list, but I made the mistake of running it past my mum who hated it. Hence why we're keeping our set-in-stone boy's pick a secret until we have a boy
    Henry. Nice, but old.
    Harrison. Could work...
    Chasen. Nah, not a fan of this one.

    Indi. Spell it with a Y and I'll like it more.
    Ayah. I'm kinda 50/50 on this one...
    Asia. No.
    Alizae. How is it pronounced? I like how it looks, but how does it sound?
    Ayla. This is nice.
    Brynn. For some reason it reminds me of a food of some sort... But I don't know what lol
    Channing. Nah, too much of a surname for me.
    Edyn. Replace Y with E and it's better.
    Bryony. I like it!
    Mia. I love this name, I used it in a play I wrote (she was the only character to survive the whole thing )
    Milla. Nah...
    Ruby. Nice, very nice
    Charli. Oooh, I like it!
    Sienna. Nice.
    Zayleigh. Another one I'm not sure of...
    Immaliah. Nope.
    Imogen. Very pretty!
    Chelsea. I can't not like this name, I have a new cousin with it
    Saige. Hmmm... It's okay...

    Thanks for the reply ladies.
    My surname is Morrison...
    I know Harrison doesnt really suit it Harrison Morrison to many simular letters but we would idealy use Harry.
    I think Jett Morrison sounds about right.

    as for the Alizae it is pronounced alla-zay

    Alicia- I loveeee Cruz too. tbh thats my no 1 choice, DP no 1 is Henry
    i love Ethan but am finding it very very popular, a bit like Charli.

    we have also opted not to disclose our choice of names as when naming #1 we had massive amounts of negativity.

    I like Cruz, Jett and Ethan for boys. For the girls, I am fairly neutral.. I don't LOVE any of them but I don't HATE any of them either.. Instead of Chasen for a boy what about Chase for a girl.. I kinda like it..

    Henry. (too common)
    Harrison. (too common)
    Chasen.(prefer Chase)

    Ayah. (nice)
    Asia. (ok)
    Alizae. (like but prob short to ali which is quiet common)
    Ayla. (nice)
    Brynn.(different, could warm to this one!)
    Channing. (not sure)
    Edyn. (nice name, i love y's ad could get used to it spelt this way but actually like Eden better)

    Okay time to bring on the honesty - by the way I *love* your firstborn's name, Oscar Slaide Ashyr

    Cruz Really not a fan of this one and is becoming very common
    Jett Goes really well with your last name, although I'm not a huge fan of the name
    Felix Hahaha yes Felix the cat! But it is a very cool name - every time I hear it I smile. Not sure why I just love it!
    Milo LOVE this name. Unusual but not too weird (thankyou Milo Ventimiglia).
    Ethan Commonnnn. I prefer Elliott personally.
    Henry Have never been a fan.
    Harrison I love the name Harrison, but like you said, be careful with your last name. If you want Harry, just name him Harry
    Chasen Definitely go with Chase (I also love this for a girl, but it's one of my favourite boys names too)

    girls we have (again do not hesitate on your opinions)

    Indi Pretty, another vote for spelling it Indy
    Ayah Prefer Ayla
    Asia Don't really like this, I knew a dodgy Asia once...
    Alizae Pronunciation/spelling going to be an inevitable problem with this one.
    Ayla Lead character in one of my favourite book series - I've always liked this name
    Brynn I see this as a last name, not a first - not really a fan of it as FN.
    Channing Nope. Sorry!
    Edyn I like Eden better, becoming more common for both girls and boys
    Bryony This is really pretty.
    Mia So pretty. So many people think so! *hits all the people making this name too common* :P
    Milla Said this in another post, I prefer Myla (My-lah). So pretty!
    Ruby Love it, but very common
    Charli Adore it as a diminuitive for Charlotte. Super cute!
    Sienna Love love love
    Zayleigh I'm not a fan of -leigh spellings in general, and I don't like the Zay. Have you thought of Xanthe (Zanthee)? Also very original and pretty...
    Immaliah I don't really like this one sorry!
    Imogen Love it. My favourite version is Imogene (Imo-jean) nickname Genie
    Chelsea I love this. You could play around with spellings to find something not so mainstream?
    Saige Absolutely stunning. Love it.

    Overall my favourites are Chase & Milo for boys, and Saige & Sienna for girls. Other names you might also like: Hamish, Westley, Oliver, Demetri, and Micah for boys; Lucia, Sophia, Cassandra and Jemma for girls

    Milo. ---- I don't like this one since I like Milo the drink so much!

    Brynn. - Don't like this one

    Cruz. --- Not for me as traditionally a girls name

    Felix. ---- love it
    Milo. ---- love it
    Ethan. ---- Ethan is nice but common
    Henry. ---- love it
    Harrison. ----- I like this
    Chasen. ---- Sounds like he would constantly get asked/called Jason and it would be a PITA to correct people all the time.

    Girls names, I like Milla and Sage

    lol glad I could be of assistance Ick I'd HATE my bubba to have a name of an ex or df's ex *shudder*.
    Oh i know! thats why im very happy you said what you did. and because DP and her have several mutual friends and i cant escape the women,and to add insult to injury she thinks shes the best thing since slices bread, she would prob assume its after her hahaa.
