[Opinions] Julian, Georgina, Elton and Rowena
I've been talking more names with my boyfriend Samuel lately and we've come up with an unofficial sibset.
He likes:
Julian "Jules"
Georgina "George"
Elton
Rowena "Rowie"
What do you think of them as siblings? Do any of them stick out to you?
I think Elton stands out a bit, so suggestions to replace that would be nice. Preferably names that are a bit less common but not too weird. I possibly think Julian may be a little too poplar for my tastes. So any suggestions would be great! :)
EDIT: Also Sammy likes Ambrose so would Ambrose fit better to replace Elton?

Are you pronouncing the ending of Rowena the same as Georgina? If so, I think that Rowena and Georgina are too rhymey. If you're pronouncing Rowena roh-WEN-a, I think that Julian, Georgina, and Rowena sound nice together. Elton sticks out a bit plus I automatically think of Elton John. I definitely think that Ambrose fits in better than Elton. I also really like Alden, which has a similar feel to Elton, but I think it sounds nicer and works better with Julian, Georgina, and Rowena.
Julian -- Gorgeous. Nice to see Jules on a boy. Thumbs up.
Georgina -- Love it. Absolutely love it. Nn George? How about Georgie?
Elton -- Ick, sorry. Alban, Aldous, Ainslie, Alva, Avery, Adlai, Anatole (nn Tolly?), Anselm / Ansel, Albion, Aubrey / Alberic, Esmond, Everard, Eustace, Eamonn, Emil, Emrys / Ambrose, Emeric, Ives / Ivo, Idris, Oswald, Oswin, Oberon / Auberon, Orson, Owen?
Rowena -- Love it. I can never decide if I like Rowena or Edwina better. How about nn Ena?

Thanks for the feed back.
Reason for nn of George is I think if the nn was Georgie everyone would assume her name was Georgia which is sooo massively popular here! Plus I started to love the name after reading Enid Blyton famous five books as a child and she was always called George.
Out of your suggestions I liked: Ainslie (Ainsley) Aubrey, Eamon (anohter we were considering), Emil (also considering this), Emrys, Ambrose, Auberon and Owen.
Ena is interesting.
Thanks :)
