Estelle, Juliet, Curtis and Malakai/chi would be my favourites over all!!
If I was to suggest combos overall (using yours and a few suggestions thrown in):
Whitten Augustus ‘Whit’
Billy Callahan
Malakai Everett ‘Mak’ ‘Kai’
Marshall Leo ‘Mars’ ‘Marlo’
Curtis Callahan ‘Kit’
Everett Dean ‘Eddy’ ‘Ever’ ‘Rett’
Malakai Rory
Hudson Wesley
Curtis Julian
Callahan Miles
Augustus Reeve
Everett Miles
You have a great list! [name_f]My[/name_f] favorite are [name_u]Dean[/name_u], [name_u]Everett[/name_u], [name_u]Leo[/name_u], [name_u]Curtis[/name_u], [name_f]Jillian[/name_f], & [name_f]Daisy[/name_f].
If your last name ends in -ton, I think you should avoid the names [name_m]Deacon[/name_m], [name_u]Hudson[/name_u], Rosston, and [name_m]Baron[/name_m], since it would sound repetetive. [name_m]Malcolm[/name_m] is nice, but might be tounge twisty too, depending on how you say it.
Otherwise you have a good list! I like the mix between trendier names and classics, and think either category could work for you. Since you already got some great options from other people in this thread, I’ll just say that I really like [name_m]Vincent[/name_m], [name_m]Richard[/name_m], [name_f]Odette[/name_f], and [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] from your list.
