I do have a secret soft spot for Heath but I think a boy/man has to have a certain style to suit it and how would you know ahead of time? Whereas James is so classic and timeless and would be a safer/easier choice (and with a variety of nn’s to suit different personalities - I like Jem or Jamie).

For girls Olivia - I love a Shakespearean classic. Sophia is gorgeous too with a great meaning but there are a lot of Sophie’s and Sofia’s about too (which might mean she has to correct people a lot).

Your other choices (with the exception of Oliver which is nice enough) are a bit trendy imo and more likely to date. Or slightly dated themselves - Joshua and Chloe feel a bit 90’s

I like - James, Joshua or Oliver. Sophia, Olivia, Chloe or Margot.

I’d choose James and Chloe - lovely simple classics that aren’t currently overused

Joshua and Chloe

Oliver, Olivia, James, Sophia and Margot are all nice but way overdone, the rest are daft.

James and Joshua are nice. I like all the girls names except Margot
