I like Ptolemy pronounced ptoh-leh-meey (audible p).
Lynx is an animal.
Magalie is interesting, it sounds French. I see that it is a French form of Magdalena. I prefer Magdalena but Magalie is a nice name as well.
Konstantin is nice, this spelling looks best in Latin letters but from pronounciation and Cyrillic spelling I prefer Kostyantyn.
Gertie is okay, I don't like diminutive full names but maybe her full name was Gertrude and you just saw/heard her nickname. Gertrude has a great meaning :) I like the German and French pronunciations.
Ellen is nice. I prefer other variants (Helena, Olena, Yelena) but Ellen is a great name as well.

Ptolemy is cool, I like Lynx on a pet, and I don’t like how prominent “MAGA” is in Magalie. I love Helen, but not Ellen.
Ptolemy's one of my favourites, nice to know there's one out there. I've always thought it sounds quite young and accessible.
I can't wrap my head around Ptolemy. I think it sounds too medical to be a human name, like it's the name for a muscle or something.
Lynx is very interesting. I've recently discovered that I really like animal names on humans so I like this one.
Magalie is cute but I don't like how "Maga" is in it and is very clearly pronounced.
Kostantin/Konstantin is a great name. Could be a more interesting long-form for Stan than Stanley or Stanford.
Gertie and Ellen are cute. I don't like them individually but together they're nice.

Ptolemy is fantastic.
Its so nice to see a real life Ptolemy. I really loved it, but had 3 girls, I always wondered how usable it was.
Ellen is ok
Wow, how thrilling! May I ask where you live (generally)?
Gertie & Ellen is such a cute set.
Gertie & Ellen is such a cute set.
