Elliott and Elodie

Love Elliot John and Felicity Elizabeth

Second choices would be Toby John and Elodie Judith but actually I like every name on your lists.

Toby of course - it's my son's name! Toby Oliver (but he's 43 and Oliver wasn't popular then. We've hardly come across any other Tobys.
Girls - I think these El names are SO popular - Ellie, Ella, Evie etc. I only like Alice and you could have Alice Elizabeth or you could have my grand-daughter's name Anya! She's 16 and we've never come across another! What's not to like!

Samuel. Don't like. Very uppity. IMO
Toby. Okay. Not the nicest or worse name
Elliot. Is gorgeous, but. There's not many good nn opportunities, only Ellie, DL, which is very effeminate.

Sophie. Nice pretty name, but very popular.
Alice. Just okay
Elodie. Awful. It's looks like the M has been missed off
Felicity. I don't really have an opinion on this name, but I picture a little blond girl with tight curly hair and blue eyes.
Eloise. Very pretty

How is Samuel uppity?

I don't know. I just imagine an uppity family when I hear the name Samuel

I like Samuel. I'm not too keen on Toby. I love Elliott (but I prefer 'Elliot')

I like Sophie; Elodie; Eloise and Alice, but not too keen on Felicity!

So... Elliott or Sophie - congratulations
