Based on someone’s earlier thread, please can you rate my names out of 10 and if you like give feedback or further suggestions.

2 siblings with short 4 letter names.

In no particular order... (some are mine, some dh’s preference but all ones we could potentially consider)

Ciara
Ava
Elle
Caoimhe
Jessica
Talia

Jack
Jake (not Jacob)
Daniel
Sean
Conor

Also like Aidan, Cian and Adam but can’t use as they don’t work for various reasons.

Ciara 6. - nice enough and seems fairly useable outside Ireland too.
Ava 7. - gorgeous but just too popular (similar Ada would be 8. but Anna is a 10.)
Elle 1. - not as a given name, but fine as a nn (for Eleanor, Helena, Isabelle etc)
Caoimhe 2. -too difficult to spell (unless you live in Ireland, then 7.)
Jessica 8. - Lovely and Shakespearean (although can feel a touch 80's)

Talia 10. - Beautiful, although I prefer the classical Thalia spelling personally.

Jack 9. - Popular but one of the few nn names I like (but still original John would be 10.)
Jake (not Jacob) 1.- I usually dislike nickname names
Daniel 8. - Nice and classic (I'm just not keen on nn Dan)
Sean 7. - Okay but again prefer similar John (unless you are in Ireland).
Conor 2. - Not my taste and will have spelling issues (one N or two)

@JanewaysBun

Distant Irish roots. One sibling has a name with Irish roots, albeit much easier to spell! Live just outside London and Caoimhe isn’t particularly unusual amongst my DC’s school friends. There’s quite a few Cian’s, Conor’s, Liam’s, Cillian’s, Ciara’s, Niamh’s, Saoirse’s etc.

I really like Jessica, Ava's OK but I don't like any of the other girl's names. I like Daniel, Jack's OK but very popular, and I like Jacob but not Jake. Not keen on Sean or Conor.

Ciara 5
Ava 3
Elle 3
Caoimhe 8
Jessica 7
Talia 3

Jack 3
Jake 2

Daniel 8
Sean 10
Conor 6

They are all fine, Caoimhe is nice, will they have Irish roots? My ultimate 3 Irish names are Niamh, Saoirse and Cillian which I think are beautiful
