Happy Christmas! That's all I have to say ;)
Happy - this is just cruel
Christmas - so is this
Terry - like but only as nn for Teresa
Carrie - only like as mn
Helen - like it
Russia - have to say, I'm not a fan of creative weird names, but as they go, this is quite good, it's not that weird considering India is quite a widespread name
Brenda - ugh
Mark - love it
Nicholas - ditto but would personally prefer to use Nicola on a girl
Allen - prefer spelling Allan
John - how uninspired. don't know how people can stand to give the world more Johns!

GIRLS:
Rachel - nice
Raven Lanella - Lanella seems rubbish to me, Raven is OK
Martha - as I've said before, I find this an old lady name
Frances - pretty name
Kimberly - nms, very 80s to me
Clarey - how could anyone rape a beautiful name, Clare, like this??
Kate - OK, but I'd prefer it as a nn for Katherine / Katelyn / etc.
Sandra - I like Alessandra better, this nn is nms
Happy - a bit cutesy IMHO
Christmas - I would have sticked to Noelle or Natalia, but even so, it's not as bad as some kre8iw spellings. The poor girl will be teased nonetheless I think
Carolyn - not bad, but I like Caroline better
Terry - nms. Even as a nn for Teresa, I prefer Tess or Tessa
Joan - OK
Ann Counter Mei - is this a joke?
Jean - OK
Carrie - hopefully only a nn
Helen - nice, but I prefer Helena
Russia - I never liked country names
Luz - nice
Maria - OK, but no fantasy
Brenda - nice
BOYS:
George - OK, but very plain
Kevin - all right
Bobbey - I can't see grandpa Bobbey... but good if he remains a toddler for eternity
