Isaac
Charlie ( don't know if it goes with surname)
Alexander (hate Alex though)
Raphael ( don't like any nn)

Girls

Elinor (name of DH ex)
Helena
Eloise
Margot
Martha
Eva
Niamh
Natalie
Alayna
Louisa
Juliet

Francis - no.
Michael - nice
Aidan - I really like it. Wouldn't put too much stock in the aids thing.
Micah - love
Isaac - like it
Charlie - no. Toddlery and overdone.
Alexander - jaysus no, not if you hate Alex.
Raphael - fine

Frances - nah
Evelyn - ok
Adeline - what about Adalind? I love Adalind. Adeline is ok.
Elinor - I like it but is it going to be weird for you and dh given the ex thing?
Helena - meh
Eloise - no
Margot - fine. Doesn't do anything for me really.
Martha - no. Bit scullery maid imo.
Eva - nah. Overdone and bland.
Niamh - lovely
Natalie - lovely
Alayna - I love Elena but not a fan of Alayna. It doesnt look elegant or attractive at all.
Louisa - no
Juliet - ok
Charlotte - would avoid if you don't want a Charley then! Very obvious nn.

Vivienne - lovely
Marianne - ok
Beatrice - not a fan

Marianne is beautiful. From your boy's names I like Francis and Isaac.
