    Scarlett -- Red head, and a scarlett letter, it's okay.

    Autumn -- the season, hate it as a name

    Diana -- too plain, like Deanna way better.

    Harlyn -- reminds me of Harley, as a guys name.

    Bridget -- nice, as long as you don't name her Broklyn Bridget

    Skye -- like it.

    Sailor -- was she conceived on a boat?

    Reese -- Nice name, but I like it more as a middle name.

    Rylan -- NO!

    Journey -- Again NO!

    Maxine -- not really, I like MAXIME better

    Roxie -- Like it spelled ROXY better, and reminds be of Moxie, but nice name.

    My Favourties: Skye, Bridget, and Roxie.

    Congratulations!

    Scarlett- Very beautiful but I also know a few, Maybe a middle name?

    Autumn- I know 1 Autumn, its pretty but It doesnt give any nicknames really and I'm not a fan of seasonal names.

    Diana- I like Diana! It's regal and very pretty, also works as a middle name.

    Harlyn- NEVER heard this!! It's so pretty, so far its my favourite. Linking to what I said previously; Harlyn Scarlett, Harlyn Diana etc

    Bridget- Don't like, I know a few woman called Bridget who aren't the classiest.

    Skye- I like it! Prefer Skylar but Skye is very sweet :)

    Sailor/Saylor- Not a fan.

    Reese- This is way more masculine to me and reminds of the PB cups

    Rylan- I have a neighbour who has a daughter called Rylan, its quite masculine but with a feminine middle name it works well. {The Rylan I know is Rylan Olivia. }

    Journey- Seems like a 'made up' celebrity name. I don't like it

    Maxine- Never liked Max on a girl, bit too old school.

    Roxie- LOVE Roxie!!!!

    My favourites are Harlyn, Roxie and Rylan :)

    Scarlett-I think of Scarlett Johanson, she's absolutely stunning of course, but I also hear "Scar" ...and it gives me an unpleasant taste in my mouth. Although I do like it, I rate it about a 6.

    Autumn-Of course I think of the season, and what a beautiful season it is! Although, I work at a preschool and the name is getting more common. Love it though--I give it an 8.

    Diana-I think of a beautiful red head from back in the olden days. Someone that would be in the notebook. But then again the name is a bit out dated. I give it a 5 or so.

    Harlyn-Wow, never heard this one before. STUNNING! My friend just named her baby "Harlowe" ...so that's what I think of, and what a gorgeous baby she is. Nothing bad to say about this name! I give it a 10! I also love the spelling.

    Bridget-I don't have much to say about Bridget, I'm just not a fan =/ A 3.

    Skye-I like this as a middle name... perhaps Harlyn Skye, that's very beautiful. But I feel as though its too masculine for a female. I give it a 3 for a first name, but a 9 for a middle name!

    Sailor/Saylor-Sailor, no. Saylor, YES. Very cute!! I love original. When I hear Saylor I think of the ocean... of course, that's what Sailors do! I give it an 8.

    Reese-Witherspoon, and Reeses--both YUM! haha. But not my favorite for a name. I give this a 5.

    Rylan-This is beautiful, for some reason it reminds me of a violin, (if I'm saying it correctly), which can be beautiful, but at the same time not. I give this name a 7.

    Journey-Life sure is one! So in that aspect I love it, but I also think of the band... which isn't exactly a classy name.. so it depends the kind of person you are! Laid back-yes! Classy-no! I give it an 8.

    Maxine-No no no!

    Roxie-My pups name is Roxy, so thats all I think about. Biased opinions aren't fair, I'll leave this one blank!

    Goodluck on the feedback, and certainly good luck on your little girl!

    Remember, you asked for first impressions... ;)

    Scarlett = Red haired. Sleezy. Sorry.

    Autumn = Pretty. Favorite.

    Diana = Old.

    Harlyn [pronounced HAR-LIN] = Harlot. Sorry again.

    Bridget = Blonde. Airhead.

    Skye = A bit hippie, but pretty. Whimsical.

    Sailor/Saylor = For a girl? Negative.

    Reese = Simple, but nice. Intelligent.

    Rylan = Different, kind of pretty. Boyishly cute.

    Journey = Even more hippie than Skye.

    Maxine = Eh. I think of an angry Italian woman with a big mouth. I don't know why.

    Roxie [not roxanne] = Feisty. Rocker.

    I like Autumn and Rylan the best.

    I definitely love all of those names on boys more! With the exception of Brooke. I think boy names on girls is really tacky and unattractive, and it makes things really confusing when you're talking about someone and can't tell if they're a boy or girl. I mean one of the main purposes for a name is to be able to tell someones gender... Plus girls are taking all the sweet boy names and now it's like you can't name your son something that isn't "Mr. Super Butch McTestosterone" sounding. As for the surnames like McKenzie and Addison, those should just stay surnames... I don't like them on either gender. Edit: I think it would be embarrassing to some to meet someone of the opposite sex with their name, I know some girls who don't care, and then there's my friends Logan and Morgan who are both girls and get really annoyed by it and Logan gets "butch" jokes a lot from people because she looks very tomboyish and you know people are just @sses sometimes, so sometimes bullying can be a problem too which is another reason I don't like it. And I feel bad for boys with names that are starting to be used on girls because now they're getting picked on by kids that don't know better too.
