Cleo. I don't like sounds a like a cat, IMO
Eliza is beautiful
Arianna is okay.
Xavier is beautiful, and goes great with Cancer
Brodie and Harley. I can't stand , sorry. They're such daft names compared to a strong name like Xavier, apologies to anyone I may have offended.
So my choice of names would be. Eliza or Xavier.

The girls names are all lovely, my favourite is Cleo.

I'm not keen on the boys names TBH, a bit American sounding to me. Harley also makes me think of motorbikes! If I had to pick one I'd go with Xavier, but I think it sounds a bit too 'match' with Xander.

Pinklily1 · 13/12/2015 16:56

*matchy

Harley or Arianna.

Cleo - like
Eliza - OK
Arianna - lovely

Xavier - like but too similar to Xander
Brody - not keen
Harley - like

Xavier, but too close to Xander IMO. Really don't like Harley or Brody. I think you need to start again, sorry.

Cleo or Eliza are both good.

I like Eliza and Arianna and Xavier but agree that it's too matchy with Xander...

Lottiedaydreambeliever2014 · 13/12/2015 19:37

Not keen on any of your boy names. Girl names- Cleo is my favourite, then Eliza. Arianna just makes me think Ariana Grande.

BendydickCuminsnatch · 13/12/2015 20:38

Cleo - love it, quite old school glam
Eliza - quite dull
Arianna - too frilly for my taste

Xavier - nice but not with Xander
Brody - alright, surfer vibes
Harley - OK

Coral2094 · 13/12/2015 23:35

Eliza is lovely.

Xavier is my favourite but think it's too similar to Xander so I'd go with Brody

TempsPerdu · 14/12/2015 11:30

Cleo - lovely, although I prefer the Clio spelling (in spite of the car thing - just looks more streamlined to me)
Eliza - nice but a bit dull
Arianna - pretty but a bit frilly for my taste

Not keen at all on Brody or Harley. Like Xavier but agree that it's too matchy with Xander - personally I'd go back to the drawing board on boys' names!

MitzyLeFrouf · 14/12/2015 13:53

Cleo is gorgeous! Much nicer than the other two girls' names.

Xavier is also gorgeous, but I don't think it goes with Xander.

LaurieLemons · 14/12/2015 15:34

Love Cleo and Eliza - very pretty

Also like Harley, and Xavier goes very well with Xander

Not too keen on Brody or Arianna

TaliZorah · 14/12/2015 16:21

I like Arianna

Don't like the boys names

tuilamum · 15/12/2015 13:28

Eliza/Arianna or Harley

Dinosaursdontgrowontrees · 15/12/2015 13:36

Love Cleo so gorgeous.
Find Eliza a bit dull and Arianna a bit too frilly.
Like Xavier but really not with Xander.
Harley is fine.
Brody is awful, sorry.
