[Opinions] Frey & Jem
I was looking for some inspiration, and I came across Frey and Jem. What do you think? Not together necessarily, just as individual names.
Edit: maybe I should mention that the word fray isn't an issue with the name Frey, since English isn't our first language and nobody will make the association here.

I love them as nicknames but they seem a bit incomplete singularly. Not sure why since I love one-syllable names... but these just don't work as well.
Though, Jem is kinda cute and reminiscent of Gem, Gemini. Frey makes me think you meant to say Freya, but I do like the sound a lot.
I always thought that Linnea would be an awesome twin name as it is a twin flower.

Yeah, he's gross. As a SoI&F geek, I can't get behind it.
Jem = To Kill a Mockingbird. Which isn't bad , but maybe a bit too precious.

For Frey, my first thought is of the family from A Song of Ice and Fire, which if you are unfamiliar with is not a good association at all, and probably pretty widespread with the popularity of the show.
I don't really care, to be honest. The show might be popular now (but I don't know anything about it), in a few years it'll be forgotten.
I love Jem as a nickname, for either a boy or a girl. Jeremy nn Jem is on my short list. I wouldn't use it as a full name, but it works as a spunky nn. Jerome nn Jem would also work.
With Frey, I just can't get past the word fray, and I don't find the sound attractive at all. Which is weird, because I love Freya and don't have either problem with it. Funny how much difference one little letter can make.

One letter can make a lot of difference.
Since English isn't our first language, the word fray isn't an issue for us.
