[name_u]Elliott[/name_u]
[name_m]Gideon[/name_m]
[name_u]James[/name_u]

[name_m]Jax[/name_m]
[name_m]Keane[/name_m]
[name_m]Lennon[/name_m]
[name_u]Porter[/name_u]

Brave and brilliant going for [name_u]Addison[/name_u] or [name_u]Madison[/name_u] for a boy!

First, the yays:
[name_m]Gideon[/name_m] - [name_f]Adore[/name_f], would use in a minute.
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] - Like, but probably wouldn’t use.
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] - Nice, vintage quality.

Less positively:
[name_m]Jax[/name_m] - Doesn’t seem like a real name.
[name_m]Keane[/name_m] - No.
[name_u]James[/name_u] - Dull. Fine, but dull. More so than [name_m]John[/name_m] even.
[name_u]Addison[/name_u] - [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t care for it on a boy or a girl.
[name_u]Porter[/name_u] - Of all the occupational names?
[name_u]Madison[/name_u] - No.
[name_m]Lennon[/name_m] - You’re going to need someone who hates [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Lennon[/name_m] less than I do. But ugh.

[name_m]Gideon[/name_m] - a Biblical name full of energy
[name_m]Jax[/name_m] - harsh and unattractive
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] - ok but not a favourite of mine
[name_m]Keane[/name_m] - only if it’s a family name
[name_u]James[/name_u] - classic and traditional
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] - lots of character and depth and I love the [name_m]King[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] legend.
[name_u]Addison[/name_u] - it’s a disease
[name_u]Porter[/name_u]- this occupation is still current
[name_u]Madison[/name_u] - dislike it for either gender
[name_m]Lennon[/name_m] - only if you’re a big [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Lennon[/name_m] fan and then only in the middle spot. What about [name_m]Lennox[/name_m] which is half of [name_m]Lennon[/name_m] and has the “x” of [name_m]Jax[/name_m]?

I like [name_m]Jax[/name_m], but only as a nickname. I prefer [name_u]Pax[/name_u] or [name_u]Paxton[/name_u].

I like [name_u]Addison[/name_u] and [name_u]Madison[/name_u].

[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] is very attractive even though it’s not my favorite.

[name_m]Gideon[/name_m] isn’t my style, at least for now. [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] isn’t my style at all.

[name_m]Keane[/name_m] is unusual, to me at least, and I like it. Handsome.

[name_u]Porter[/name_u] is ok.
[name_m]Lennon[/name_m]…don’t like it much. Not horrid, just not my thing.

[name_u]James[/name_u] is fine, I like [name_u]Jamison[/name_u] better! but only as a middle or second middle name.

You may like: [name_u]Taylor[/name_u], [name_u]Rylan[/name_u], [name_m]Ryland[/name_m], [name_u]Schuyler[/name_u], [name_m]Alaric[/name_m], [name_m]Geoffrey[/name_m]/[name_m]Jeffrey[/name_m], [name_m]Graham[/name_m], [name_m]Vincent[/name_m]

[name_m]Palmer[/name_m], [name_u]Hayden[/name_u], [name_m]Hendrix[/name_m], [name_m]Hayes[/name_m], [name_m]Bennett[/name_m], [name_m]Archer[/name_m], [name_m]Fletcher[/name_m], [name_u]August[/name_u], [name_u]Blaine[/name_u]

[name_m]Gideon[/name_m] - unusual and I really like it!

[name_m]Jax[/name_m] - too trendy for my taste; reminds me of a unique spelling for [name_m]Jackson[/name_m]/[name_m]Jaxon[/name_m]

[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] - I’m a big fan of this name; my DH unfortunately is not, so it’s off our list.

[name_m]Keane[/name_m] - reminds me of the outdoor shoe brand

[name_u]James[/name_u] - [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] - this is our number one choice.

[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] - I like this; traditional but not over-used

[name_u]Addison[/name_u] - not a fan for either gender

[name_u]Porter[/name_u] - unusual as a first name, but I don’t dislike it

[name_u]Madison[/name_u] - not a fan for either gender

[name_m]Lennon[/name_m] - Reminds me of the Beatles

[name_m]Gideon[/name_m] - [name_u]Love[/name_u] this. I know a little [name_m]Gideon[/name_m] [name_u]Toby[/name_u] which I find adorable.
[name_m]Jax[/name_m] - Eh, dislike.
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] - I love this. It’s a family surname for me so I’m probably biased.
[name_m]Keane[/name_m] - Really like. Also like [name_u]Keaton[/name_u] a lot.
[name_u]James[/name_u] - [name_f]Lovely[/name_f] and classic.
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] - Underused classic.
[name_u]Addison[/name_u] - I love this on a boy.
[name_u]Porter[/name_u] - Not my thing.
[name_u]Madison[/name_u] - Dislike this immensely for both genders.
[name_m]Lennon[/name_m] - [name_m]John[/name_m].

[name_m]Gideon[/name_m]-love this name, it’s on my list. An energetic Biblical name.

[name_m]Jax[/name_m]-Doesn’t sound like a name to me

[name_u]Elliott[/name_u]-[name_u]Love[/name_u] this name, it’s on my list. [name_f]My[/name_f] only concern is the rising popularity of this name for girls (but it’s not even in the top 1000 in the US so that’s maybe just a namesite popularity.)

[name_m]Keane[/name_m]-neutral

[name_u]James[/name_u]-lovely classic name, can’t go wrong here but for me a little plain

[name_m]Arthur[/name_m]- strong old fashioned name, I love it, it’s been on and off my list for awhile now (off because it’s a little awkward with my last name)

[name_u]Addison[/name_u]-this is definitely more a girls name now at #12 for girls and #870 for boys and dropping fast…but maybe that doesn’t bother you

[name_u]Porter[/name_u]-neutral

[name_u]Madison[/name_u]-girls name #4 for girls in US and off the charts for boys.

[name_m]Lennon[/name_m]-[name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Lennon[/name_m]! Nice name with pretty much just one association for me.

I love love love [name_u]Elliot[/name_u], but my husband does not. I think it’s intelligent, warm, and familiar without being common. We’re about to have a second boy and he may be named [name_u]James[/name_u], so I obviously love that one as well.

[name_m]Jax[/name_m] is a totally different style than most on your list, far more trendy. I’m not a fan of that one.

[name_m]Gideon[/name_m] : my favorite from your list .
[name_m]Jax[/name_m] : I actaully prefer it to [name_m]Jack[/name_m] . Like it .
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] :lovely name.
[name_m]Keane[/name_m] : nms
[name_u]James[/name_u] : adore .
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] L sold , classic names .
[name_u]Addison[/name_u] : Its better than [name_u]Madison[/name_u] .
[name_u]Porter[/name_u] : harsh sounding.
[name_u]Madison[/name_u] : Not a fan on either gender
[name_m]Lennon[/name_m] : Its okay . I just prefer [name_m]Lennox[/name_m].

[name_m]Gideon[/name_m]- Fantastic! It sounds strong and handsome.
[name_m]Jax[/name_m]- Too trendy.
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u]- I love this name, especially with the double “t” ending.
[name_m]Keane[/name_m]- I don’t like it. Sounds like keen.
[name_u]James[/name_u]- [name_u]James[/name_u] is great- nice and classic.
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m]- I think [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] is coming back!
[name_u]Addison[/name_u]- People will assume he’s a girl.
[name_u]Porter[/name_u]- I just hear “porta-potty”.
[name_u]Madison[/name_u]- [name_u]Madison[/name_u] has gone to the girls.
[name_m]Lennon[/name_m]- Interesting, but it’s not my style.
