All girls names are fine, very popular, not super exciting.

Similarly for boys... other than Atticus which is more stand out - I like it, and Magnus which is a bit unusual, I don’t especially like it.

Any suggestions instead? 😃

all are pretty good.
personally not so keen on Margot or Magnus.

Girl:

Grace - really like
Alice - nice but heard it a lot on here
Florence - too florally for me personally
Amelia - classic, love it (would probably go for it)
Margot - really like it just now

Boy:

Atticus - not keen sorry
Magnus - not keen sorry
Hugo - nice enough but a lot of dogs names seem to be Hugo that I know
Louis - my favourite
William - I like Billy/Billie but don’t think I’d use William as the name I actually called him

3.Grace - okay, a bit dull/over popular.
1.Alice - classic/timeless, can't go wrong name.
2.Florence - a bit retro trendy, but has a lovely sound.
4.Amelia - popular, and Shakespearean Emilia looks nicer imo.
5.Margot - too trendy, not keen on the sound.

3.Atticus - lovely, maybe slightly brave as very associated with TKAM
2.Magnus - Scandi/aristo cool with nice nn's in Max and Gus.
5.Hugo - too trendy, but classic Hugh is nice.
4.Louis - okay, not a particular fave.
1.William -classic/timeless, can't go wrong name, great namesakes.

Margot and Louis are my favourites from your list. I like all of them though.

Love:
Grace
Alice
Florence

Margot is okay, dislike Amelia.

Love every one of your boy's list!! Magnus is my all-time favourite!

Margot is awful. I like the other girls names.

Not so keen on the boys names apart from William

Grace - strong, beautiful, timeless
Alice - a bit twee for my liking
Florence - again, a classic and I personally like most of the possible nicknames
Amelia - it has a nice sound, but is very 'now' if that bothers you
Margot - I blow hot and cold (largely because of its similarity to the word Maggot in english), but it has a certain dignity about it

Atticus - really not sure about it. There's something I enjoy, but also something very try hard about it
Magnus - I like this one. It would suit someone of any age I think
Hugo - like it. It has a certain energy about it
Louis - a bit boring to my ear, and possible pronunciation issues if that would bother you
William - Not to my taste and I greatly dislike the possible nicknames, though I think this is just a personal irrational dislike! I would go for Edward or Edmund over William, which I see as similar feeling names

I have a Magnus. My DP suggested it, and I seem to remember I laughed at the time. I’m so pleased we chose it. Of my three children’s names, this gets the most positive reactions, particularly from men. I think it’s a name they wouldn’t mind having themselves. A bit Viking-esque, I suppose. I like names with a bit of history. It’s quite unusual in England, but everyone has heard of it, and knows how to spell it. Don’t discount it because of a couple of negative comments here - it normally gets a really positive response, both on Mumsnet and in real life. It has brought me a ridiculous amount of happiness! Have fun choosing.

Girl:
Alice - 10/10
Florence - 9/10
Grace - 8/10
Margot - 7/10
Amelia - 1/10

Boy:
Atticus - 10/10
Magnus - 7/10
Louis - 6/10
William - 3/10
Hugo - 1/10

In order of preference (best to worst):

Girl:
Alice
Margot
Florence
Grace / Amelia

To be honest, they are all fairly safe choices.

The only 1 of your boys names I like is William
