Benjamin - its fine but its going to be shortened to Ben which is fine but very ordinary and boring.

George - lovely
Henry - lovely
Louis - lovely

If I had to pick one, I'd probably go with George. Not sure why, your not going to go wrong with any of these to be honest.

Girls
Elsa - I dont like it, sorry.
Freya - its nice.
Olivia - gorgeous
Talia - gorgeous

I think I love Olivia and Talia equally but would slightly say towards Talia because of the popularity of Olivia at the minute.

Benjamin - lovely
George - fine
Henry - lovely
Louis - OK, if you can stand the "loo" jokes that primary age boys go in for.

Elsa - doesn't do much for me
Freya - OK
Olivia - OK
Talia - don't like this spelling. Thalia is lovely.

Love Elsa :)

Freya and Louis all the way

Henry and Elsa are my favourites, closely followed by George and Freya. Talia I really dislike. Probably because it reminds me of genitalia therefore I struggle to find it aesthetically pleasing.
