[Opinions] Re: Children from my work

Interesting
Girls:
Poppy - overused and juvenile
Esme - family name; I'd consider using it
Mia - trite and silly
Kenzie - oh dear; at least it isn't Mac = Son of Kenzie
Audrey - not for me: seems drab and dull
Niha - never seen or heard it; rather like a stifled sneeze
Chelsea - sounds OK; etymologically daft
Boys
Reuben - all right; I much prefer Robin
Alexander - needs a rest, or a nn like Sandy instead of Al, Alec, Alex ...
Saxon - I know a woman named Saxon: the University of Cape Town started off as the South African College School and was still sometimes knows as Sacs and featured in some student songs as the home of Saxons
Bailey - Old Bailey, the best-known criminal court in London? Or, a defensive wall, back in the Middle Ages? Take your pick.
Max - pleasant; works well as an independent name
Beau - ghastly and ill-advised
Cameron - at last: a male one!
Lewis - as in Carroll? I prefer it to Louis.
