Like Max, and Cassian is ok. Caspian and Casper are other alternatives if you are wanting Cass as a nn. Not familiar with Emilio (Italian?) but I quite like it.

Don't like Jude (German for Jew, I associate it with writing on Holocaust stars)

Georgi looks 'unfinished' and sounds like the girls name Georgie.

Love Roma, my favourite of all your names. The other girl names aren't my taste but nothing wrong with them.

Aria999 · 05/07/2022 23:25

I like Roma and Anya.

Elsa is a bit meh and very Frozen. Lily is ok and I can't stand Violet.

I don't love any of your boys list. I like Emilio but it's very Italian, do you have an Italian connection?

Cassian sounds like a made up name to me. A quick google shows a couple of fictional ones but not much else.

Max is very posh. Georgi doesn't sound like a real name either. Jude is ok I suppose but I always think Jude the Obscure (ie unlucky).

How about Milo?

ChagSameachDoreen · 06/07/2022 08:17

Boy:
Jude - makes me think of the German word for Jew, which was written on yellow stars during the Holocaust.

Max - ten a penny. Ugly sound.

Emilio (Lio) - nice!

Cassian (Cass) - I would pronounce it Cashun, nickname Cash.

Georgi - looks like a girl's name with that ending.

Girl:
Violet - violent.

Lily - everywhere. Boring and overused.

Anya - gorgeous.

Roma - not a fan.

Elsa - let it go!

Thewolvesarerunningagain · 06/07/2022 08:32

Boy:
Jude- good name
Max - nothing wrong with it
Emilio (Lio) - bit 80s
Cassian (Cass)- not sure
Georgi - I'd see this and assume an east european pronunciation (phonetically Yorgi). Is this what your going for?

Girl:
Violet - perfect combination of girly and tough. Superhero name.
Lily - nice but so many now
Anya - Frozen
Roma - love it! Alternatively Romola
Elsa More Frozen

Flangelica · 06/07/2022 10:20

Boy:
Jude - nice but done to death
Max - nice but dull
Emilio (Lio) - nice but too many Leo's around
Cassian (Cass) - amazing! Sounds so cool and nn Cass is amazing. A saint's name which I also like
Georgi - sounds like a girl and don't like the spelling

Girl:
Violet - pretty and also tough, like a PP said
Lily - done to death
Anya - bit dull, will merge into a sea of Anna and Avas
Roma - my lovely granny's name! Love it!
Elsa - nice pre-frozen

Aria999 · 06/07/2022 12:29

I missed the superhero connection with Violet. Is that the incredibles? To me it sounds wet and twee.

bloominglovelyorange · 06/07/2022 14:14

Lovely lists. max, Cass and Anya are top choices
Roma is my least favourite. It's nice but remember RomaN is the top fastest rising boy name. Top 30 and still rising. I know about 10 babies called Roman. I think Roma is too similar in these circumstances and just feels like the last letter has accidentally been missed off. Would have been nice a few years ago before boom in RomaN

Noticingb · 06/07/2022 14:30

Boy:
Jude - I don’t like it
Max - good solid name
Emilio (Lio) - i don’t think you can use this unless you have an Italian connection
Cassian (Cass) - love this name, actually sad it’s mentioned so much on these boards as I expect it to be quite common in the future!
Georgi - feels unfinished. George is a fine name, and you could nn georgie

Girl:
Violet - I like it
Lily - cute
Anya - I like it
Roma - I’m less into this but it’s a fine name
Elsa - too frozen I think, she’d probably love that as a kid though

what about Georgina - you could have a gigi or a georgie still then

Scirocco · 06/07/2022 15:56

Jude - I'm neutral on it. Don't automatically love it, don't hate it.
Max - I like Maxwell a lot. Max on its own makes me think of Homer Simpson as Max Power, though.
Emilio (Lio) - Not a fan.
Cassian (Cass) - I really quite like this.
Georgi - Nope.

Violet - I like it a lot. I had a much-loved relative called Violet and think it's a beautiful name.
Lily - Ok as a nickname but I don't like it as a standalone first name.
Anya - Probably my second favourite of your girls names.
Roma - Not a fan, sorry.
Elsa - Will forever be linked to Frozen.

17caterpillars1mouse · 06/07/2022 20:50

Boy:
Jude - I like it, prefer as a NN for Judah though

Max - nice enough. Prefer as a NN for Maxwell

Emilio (Lio) - it's ok but with the popularity of Emilia on a girl I don't think he'd thank you

Cassian (Cass) - I like it, also like Caspian

Georgi - sounds girly

Girl:
Violet - nice enough

Lily - pretty but overdone

Anya - not a fan, I prefer Anna

Roma - not a fan
Elsa - pretty. I like it

DollyParton2 · 09/07/2022 18:05

I love Violet by far the most of your girl names. It’s just so pretty without being at all twee.

I like all your boy names- Max great but very overused. I LOVE the NN Cass for a boy so would probably go for that but like Jude a lot too.

FlamingoDust · 11/07/2022 19:06
