    Maverick - 5/10 It's a strong classic, but it just sounds so harsh. I'm not a fan of the harsh 'mav' sound, and I'm especially not a fan of the 'rick' sound. I'd prefer Broderick, which comes across as far more elegant.

    Landon - 6/10 I'm not a huge fan of Landon, and I'm not really sure why, but it just sounds so typically American and permanently teenager-ish.

    Liam - 9/10 Gorgeous, strong, elegant, handsome name, although I would personally prefer William. I have Darcy William in 3rd place on my favourites list.

    Oliver - 10/10 One of my all-time favourites. So gorgeous! I have Henry Oliver in 4th place on my favourites list.

    Madison - 10/10 Such a handsome, elegant, gorgeous, distinguished name. I don't currently have Madison in a combination on my favourites list, but it is one of my favourite individual names. I'm considering Harvey Madison or Madison Harvey though.

    Mackenzie - 9/10 Gorgeous, elegant and handsome. Another one of my favourites that hasn't quite made it to my top 10 combinations list. I'm considering Mackenzie Edward.

    Dakota - 4/10 Really not a fan. It's a native American tribe, and I just don't think it's appropriate as a name.

    Evan - 3/10 Very unappealing and doesn't come across as elegant or handsome in the slightest to me.

    Noel - 1/10 I really just hate everything about Noel. I don't like the sound of it whatsoever, and it just sounds permanently dull and unattractive.

    Noah - 7/10 Gorgeous and elegant, but not quite one of my favourites.

    Nikolai - 5/10 I prefer Nikola or Nicholas, but it's a decent name.

    Alexei - 5/10 I prefer Alexis or Alexander, but it's alright.

    Sasha - 8/10 A favourite of mine that isn't actually on my list for some reason! I do prefer the traditional Sacha though. It's such a gorgeous, strong, handsome, elegant name.

    Suggestions - You have a mix of styles, so I'll just give you my favourites, and you might like some of them (I've taken out names that are already on your list):

    Alfie, Angus, Ashley, Atticus, Aubrey, Avery, Calloway, Callum, Charlie, Darcy, Eamon, Emerson, Ewan, Flynn, Hamish, Hayden, Henry, Hugh, James, Jude, Lachlan, Llewellyn, Lucas, Reilly, Rowan, William

    -Maverick: I don't really like, it reminds me of a puzzle for some reason. 3/10

    -Landon: It sounds too much like a word to me 4/10

    -Liam: I like it a lot. I was considering it 8/10

    -Oliver: I think it's okay, not much against it but not a favorite 6/10

    -Madison: I know its traditionally a boys name, but it used as a girls name too much for me to look at it another way 3/10

    -Mackenzie: same as the previous 3/10

    -Dakota: I love it. Nickname Cody :) 9/10

    -Evan: I like it, don't see anything wron with it 7/10

    -Noel: Nice, 7/10

    -Noah: I considered this as well :) 8/10

    -Nikolai: I love it 8/10 It's Russian right?

    -Alexei: Also Russian? I like it :) 7/10

    -Sasha: Again, too abused as a girls name, I can't see past it 4/10

    -Maverick: 2/10 for me, something about the way it sounds just irritates me.

    -Landon: 3/10, this name was for ruined for me because of this aggravating kid in my class named Landon. I used to love this name.

    -Liam: 3/10, reminds me of Liam Hensworth, and I dislike him greatly.

    -Oliver: 4/10, too common, but you could shorten it to something cute like Olli.

    -Madison: 2/10, I cannot help but think of a girl.

    -Mackenzie: 1/10, one of my most disliked names.

    -Dakota: 7/10, I like it better on a girl than a guy, but it's still an great name.

    -Evan: 6/10, kind of too common, but it's not the worst name in the world.

    -Noel: 2/10, too Christmas sounding, and it sounds too much like a girl name.

    -Noah: 4/10, all the Noah's I have come across are annoying as hell, so I cannot stand the name.

    -Nikolai: 10/10, I adore this name, because of the Russian background, and it's just a strong boy name over-all.

    -Alexei: 9/10, another great Russian boy name, though over there it is spelled Aleksei. I love it.

    -Sasha: 9/10, and another good Russian name, I approve of this.

    I like Maverick which is my future college for lacrosse. The others in my opinion don't like. But since you're open to suggestions, Mason, Luke, Grayson are popular names and sweet names especially for lacrosse, baseball, and hockey players which are sports girls like guys to be in.
