Hello! I was looking at some old lists. Let me know what you think! (I have comments to my past self, but I’m just wondering what y’all think)
[name_m]Wells[/name_m]
[name_m]Jett[/name_m]
[name_m]Harrison[/name_m]
[name_m]Glenn[/name_m]
[name_m]Rogan[/name_m]
[name_m]Ruston[/name_m]
[name_m]Ellis[/name_m]
Roeina
[name_f]Lorelai[/name_f]
[name_f]Juniper[/name_f]
[name_f]Mabry[/name_f]
[name_f]Arline[/name_f]
[name_f]Avelina[/name_f]
Wells – Snappy, cool, and very on-trend. 7/10.
Jett – Can’t say I love it, but it works perfectly well. 5/10.
Harrison – Has really grown on me! I like all of the potential nicknames, too. 8/10.
Glenn – Feels quite dated, but the nature connection has appeal. 6/10
Rogan – 100% Joe Rogan for me. I can see the appeal as an alternative to Logan, but the connection to the podcaster is very strong. 2/10.
Ruston – I live in a place where people frequently use “g-dropping” in their vernacular, so Ruston and rustin’ are the same thing for me. Not an association I particularly love. 3/10.
Ellis – I prefer on a boy, but I know a girl who wears it really well. I can see the appeal as a more tailored alternative to other El- names. 7/10.
Roeina – ro-AY-nuh? ro-EE-nuh? I’d love to know more about this one! Reminds me of an alternative spelling to Rowena. 5/10.
Lorelai – Very Gilmore Girls with this spelling. 6/10.
Juniper – It’s cute, but I sometimes wonder if it’s too cute. 6/10.
Mabry – I don’t love the sounds of this one. Much prefer Mabli! 4/10.
Arline – Is it like Arlene or does the ending rhyme with nine? Feels a little dated and the spelling is reminiscent of “airline”. 5/10.
Avelina – Beautiful! I prefer Aveline personally, but this is a great variant. 8/10.
[name_m]Wells[/name_m] 9/10
[name_m]Jett[/name_m] 8/10
[name_m]Harrison[/name_m] 10/10
[name_m]Glenn[/name_m] 7/10
[name_m]Rogan[/name_m] 6/10
[name_m]Ruston[/name_m] 5/10
[name_m]Ellis[/name_m] 7/10
Roeina 4/10
[name_f]Lorelai[/name_f] 9/10
[name_f]Juniper[/name_f] 10/10
[name_f]Mabry[/name_f] 5/10
[name_f]Arline[/name_f] 6/10
[name_f]Avelina[/name_f] 8/10
[name_m]Wells[/name_m] - NMS, think people would forever be questioning if it’s spelt wells as in water or whales the animal because these days it could be either.
[name_m]Jett[/name_m] - I like [name_m]Jett[/name_m], more for a MN but it’s nice & ages well.
[name_m]Harrison[/name_m] - classic, strong name. [name_m]Little[/name_m] too plain for me.
[name_m]Glenn[/name_m] - NMS, although [name_m]Lenny[/name_m] makes a cute nn.
[name_m]Rogan[/name_m] - too [name_m]Seth[/name_m] [name_m]Rogan[/name_m] for me. I like [name_m]Logan[/name_m] though which is similar.
[name_m]Ruston[/name_m] - I quite like this, [name_m]Rusty[/name_m] is an adorable nn.
[name_m]Ellis[/name_m] - I prefer this as a nn for [name_f]Ellison[/name_f] but I really like it.
Roeina - really cute, but find the spelling a little incomplete looking to me.
[name_f]Lorelai[/name_f] - I know loads love this name but I could never understand the hype.
[name_f]Juniper[/name_f] - love this, my favourite from your lists. It’s stunning.
[name_f]Mabry[/name_f] - I can’t decide if it like this or hate it lol. It’s got an appeal to it.
[name_f]Arline[/name_f] - my accent butchers the ar- but its NMS.
[name_f]Avelina[/name_f] - I like this. It ages well & has potential for nn’s.
My personal favourites to least
Boys
Girls
(Of your girls list I will say I don’t dislike any of them!)
Wells - 8/10 maybe a little too trendy for me but it’s immediately cool!
Jett - 7/10 - like but too jutting for me to choose.
Harrison - 8.5/10
Glenn - 5/10 (used as an Aussie outback name in sketch comedies so hard to give fair reading)
Rogan - 4/10 (prefer Logan, and makes me think of the Indian dish)
Ruston - 7.5/10 - never heard of but like the sounds - might get teased with rust jokes
Ellis - 6/10 tailored and cool, I just don’t like it enough on a girl
Roeina - 3/10 would need to be Rowena (7.5/10), this spelling reminds me of fish roe. (I general, I prefer Wenna and the other Wenna names)
Juniper - 6.5/10 - live in theory, just don’t love meeting little Junipers (it sounds a bit snippy/ long winded in real life to me)
Lorelei - 7/10 - pretty and powerful!
Mabry - feels like trying to be Mabel, Mabli and Aubrey all at once, not sure. Is it Maybree pn? I like it the more I say it. TBC.
Arline - love an -ine name but this might be too harsh sounding for me. Arlene looks softer. Having said that the more I say it, the more I like it’s unsettling quality - 7.5/10
Aveline - very pretty. 9/10
I like your taste in all of them. [name_m]Just[/name_m] for being the first one, [name_m]Wells[/name_m] 10/10 closely followed by [name_f]Mabry[/name_f] and then [name_m]Jett[/name_m]

[name_m]Harrison[/name_m] - 5 - better than [name_m]Harry[/name_m], but a bit meh
[name_m]Glenn[/name_m] - 6 - I think it could grow on me - I like the outdoorsy, clunky vibe
[name_m]Rogan[/name_m] - 6 - another I think I could like, though it does remind me of curry sauce. Is that a bad thing? not really, and I do like those ‘gan’ sounds in names
[name_m]Ruston[/name_m] - 7 - kind of cool and earthy
[name_m]Ellis[/name_m] - 7 - sweet, unisex vibes

[name_f]Juniper[/name_f] - 8 - bright, bubbly and sassy
[name_f]Mabry[/name_f] - 7 - a distinctive, appealing sound. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you say may-bree or mabb-ree?
[name_f]Arline[/name_f] - 6 - sharp and interesting. Not my fave, but it’s not bad

[name_m]Wells[/name_m] - 6.5/10 - Great name! [name_m]Strong[/name_m] and distintc. [name_m]Just[/name_m] not my style.
[name_m]Jett[/name_m] - 6/10
[name_m]Harrison[/name_m] - 8/0 - It’s a charming choice. I prefer [name_m]Henry[/name_m] and [name_m]Harry[/name_m], though.
[name_m]Glenn[/name_m] - 5/10 - A little dated, I also think I prefer [name_m]Glenn[/name_m] for girls/women. Again, just not my style. Nice meaning!
[name_m]Rogan[/name_m] - 3/10
[name_m]Ruston[/name_m] - 4/10 - I like the meaning! The sound is interesting. However, it makes me think about the word rusty.
[name_m]Ellis[/name_m] - 6/10 - Sweet, unisex, gentle. Not a favorite of mine, but not a bad choice at all.
Roeina - 2/10
[name_f]Lorelai[/name_f] - 7/10 - [name_f]Melodic[/name_f], beautiful, captivating
[name_f]Juniper[/name_f] - 7/10 - I adore nature themed names! Interesting and fresh.
[name_f]Mabry[/name_f] - 5/10 - I like the sound! I like the meaning. I’m not sure if I saw it before. 
I wonder if it will be misspelled…
[name_f]Arline[/name_f] - 3/10 - Like [name_f]Arlene[/name_f] or ending in with the sound line? I also saw airline at the first glance. Not terrible, just a little confusing.
[name_f]Avelina[/name_f] - 8/10 - Elegant, charming! A wonderful alternative to [name_f]Ava[/name_f] and [name_f]Evelyn[/name_f] / [name_f]Eveline[/name_f]. With namy nickname options!
[name_m]Wells[/name_m]- handsome and cool 10/10
[name_m]Jett[/name_m]- also very cool! 10/10
[name_m]Harrison[/name_m]- A really nice name, only like the [name_f]English[/name_f] pronounce of Harrison/Harry- in [name_f]America[/name_f] it just sounds like hairy or hairy son. 7/10
[name_m]Glenn[/name_m]- has a nice sound, personally can’t get over the [name_m]Glenn[/name_m] [name_m]Beck[/name_m] association it has for me. 5/10
[name_m]Rogan[/name_m]- would be SUCH a cool name in theory to me if it weren’t for [name_m]Joe[/name_m] [name_m]Rogan[/name_m]. and because he’s so popular I think the association is way too strong to use. which is a shame, it has a lot of potential. 5/10
[name_m]Ruston[/name_m]- never heard it before, not sure of my feelings on it. I do like the nickname [name_m]Russ[/name_m]. 5/10
[name_m]Ellis[/name_m]- prefer for boy, but really nice name! 9/10
Roeina- [name_f]Rowena[/name_f]? I never liked the “weena” sound personally. I would suggest [name_f]Rowenna[/name_f] instead. 3/10
[name_f]Lorelai[/name_f]- not my style but really pretty 9/10
[name_f]Juniper[/name_f]- cute and modern, love the nickname [name_f]June[/name_f] 9/10
[name_f]Mabry[/name_f]- I prefer [name_f]Maebry[/name_f] spelling but love this name it’s so sweet. 10/10
[name_f]Arline[/name_f]- prefer [name_f]Arlene[/name_f] spelling. I have trouble picturing it for a baby but I like it for a grown woman.
[name_f]Avelina[/name_f]- very nice sounds in this name, I love the -lina ending. Really girly and princessy but smooth enough to not be too frilly. 10/10
Ranked from my faves to least:
[name_m]Harrison[/name_m] - I like [name_m]Harrison[/name_m], it’s sweet and ages well
[name_m]Jett[/name_m]- so so cool, also like [name_m]Jet[/name_m]
[name_m]Ruston[/name_m]- never heard of it before but I like it way more than most ‘ton’ names… not a fan of nn [name_m]Rusty[/name_m] though!
[name_m]Glenn[/name_m] - not my style, reminds me of [name_m]Glenn[/name_m] [name_m]Beck[/name_m]
[name_m]Wells[/name_m] - also nms, just feels a little awkward in my head
[name_m]Rogan[/name_m] - unfortunately echoing the [name_m]Joe[/name_m] [name_m]Rogan[/name_m] similarity issue : (
[name_f]Avelina[/name_f] - so fluttery and sweet, big fan
[name_f]Juniper[/name_f] - always loved this one. [name_m]Nature[/name_m] name that isn’t super common, reminds me of a woodland sprite
[name_f]Lorelai[/name_f] - [name_f]Beautiful[/name_f]! But I do think of [name_m]Gilmore[/name_m] girls…
[name_f]Mabry[/name_f] - I prefer Mabie/Maeby/Mabel, but I like how unique [name_f]Mabry[/name_f] is and I love the ‘May’ sound.
[name_f]Arline[/name_f] - Sweet, sounds a little [name_m]Southern[/name_m] (US) to me! Reminds me of [name_m]Arlen[/name_m], TX.
Roeina - I prefer [name_f]Reina[/name_f] or [name_f]Rowena[/name_f], but I appreciate the unique spelling!
[name_m]Ellis[/name_m] - nothing wrong with this name, just nms! I prefer [name_f]Ella[/name_f].
