ALL of those girl’s names listed are amazing! (Except for Misty, Dusty, Peaches and Dawn, which are very dated and do not have great associations where I’m from.) I would love to use Autumn, Cypress, Crystal, Indigo or Tigerlily, my favorite, in the middle spot for a girl. The boy’s names are great too. I especially love Wolf and Rowan.
I have a huge weakness for nature names, so most of these look fantastic to me too! 🙂
Okay, I am really glad you are doing all of these lists. Even though I wouldn’t use most of the names, it does give me ideas.
I do like Acacia, Autumn, Briar, Sage, Soleil and Winter for girls.
Ash, Baye, Heath, Reed, Rowan and Wolf.
