Cora-Mae is kind of cute..I like it.
I like a lot of these:
Effie Jane (Finn + Ben) - very nice, and very nice sibset. I love Finn, and I have a son named Ben(jamin), but I thought that Finn and Ben were too similar. Hmm...
Martha Christine - I've been liking Martha more lately. I think Marty is a cute nn for it.
Orla Ann
Mollie Violet Ann
Mhairi Fiona
Iona Chelsea
Penelope Louise
Isabelle Evelyn Rose
Anna Marie Siobhan
Fern Hannah
Eloise Gillian Fiona - ooh, pretty, even though I don't like Eloise that much
Eve Alexandra Joy
Cora-Mae - it's kind of cute
Mirren Grace - although Grace is kind of boring
Samuel Rory - ooh!
Miles Austin - I don't really like Austin, but this is a cool name
Rohan Alfie - Alfred would make it much better
Finn George
Murray John (Claire + Abbi) - I like the siblings too, although that's not my favorite spelling of Abbie
Vivienne
Mairi + Angus

Vivienne
Mairi + Angus
Effie Jane (Finn + Ben) - In theory I like Effie, but in practice it is WAY too similar to "effing". I also wouldn't put it in a sibset with Finn.
Martha Christine (Samuel) - Really like this, and good sibset.
Orla Ann - Okay, but Ann is boring.
Mollie Violet Ann (cousins Ethan + Kailim) - Kailim is weird. Mollie looks odd with ie at the end, but it's an okay combo.
Mhairi Fiona * - I like this one too! Mhairi is lovely.
Kirsty Ailsa (Calum) - Would've preferred Ailsa Kirsty, but OK.
Kirsty Alexandra - Switch around again.
Iona Chelsea (Haydn) - Iona bothers me quite a lot. Haydn is a weird first name too. Unless it's supposed to be like Hayden?
Penelope Louise - Very nice.
Isabelle Evelyn Rose - Yawn. Isabelle and Rose : /
Anna Marie Siobhan (Aidan) - Really like this one.
Drew Marie (Fern) - Drew on a girl? : /
Loelle Susan - Loelle is weird, Susan nice to see.
Mia Suranne (brother Jude Daniel, cousin Nell Edie Rose) - Not particularly impressed with any of the combos, although I love Edie.
Fern Hannah (Isla + Maya) - Nice sibset, not bad combo.
Robin Jane Ruby (William) - Seems a bit of a randomly stuck together combo.
Eloise Gillian Fiona (Milena) - Interesting, I quite like it.
Cassie Martha Nina (Lucienne + Joe) - Quite like this too.
Chelsey Nicole Millie (Tracy, Peter, Joseph, Samantha, Joshua, Kacey and Owen) - Don't like it at all. The sibset doesn't appeal either.
Zara Anne - Don't like the flow.
Mica - On a girl?
Arianna Elizabeth (Olivia + Archie) - I love Arianna. Unless they're saying AH-na, in which case I hate it. Don't like either sibling.
Eve Alexandra Joy * - Good name.
Saffron Amber [obviously their golden girl] - Haha, themey indeed.
Cora-Mae (Sheridan) - Not half bad.
Rhian Katie (Jon + Caitlin) - Rhian confuses me pronunciation-wise.
Beth Isobel (Alastair) - Two Elizabeth names in one?
Miranda Brighid (Olivia) * - Meh. Don't particularly like any of the names.
Mirren Grace * - Reminds me of Helen Mirren.
Lara Ellen - Like it.
Aria Magenta [wow, arty] - Interesting combo!
Martha Christine (Samuel) - Really like this, and good sibset.
Orla Ann - Okay, but Ann is boring.

lol, I never even noticed Effie and Finn together! Finn's the oldest so hopefully he'll always come first :)
Out of interest, why does Iona bother you?
Out of interest, why does Iona bother you?
Iona sounds like "I own a...". It probably wouldn't bother me if I were actually speaking to Iona, but when I say it in my head it sounds funny.
I once knew a girl called Iona Condon
So long as parents have the sense, as those of the poor girl above did not, to couple it with a name that isn't or doesn't sound like a noun, I think Iona is too well known for people to analyse it like that all the time.
