I'll give each name a rating from 1 to 10. 1 being the lowest and 10 being the highest,
Aaron Bennett 9 1/2- I LOVE Aaron and Bennett is very cute,
Joseph James "Joe"-10 I LOVE Joseph and Joe and James is my granddad's name.
Matthew David or Matthew Joseph "Matt"-10 for Matthew David, 8 for Matthew Joseph. I've always loved Matthew and David has special meaning to me. As you know, I love Joseph, but I'm not as in love with it when paired with Matthew.
Wesley Richard "Wes"-12 I ADORE Wes or
Wesley and Richard makes me think of someone very nice and handsome.
Calvin Clayton-7 1/2 Not bad. Not your best, but not bad,
Cole Brandon-8 Like both names a lot. Very, very good combination too.
Nicholas Andrew "Nick"-12 Another WONDERFUL name. Nicholas is terrific and I like Andrew too. Paired together, they are perfect.

Deciding what to name your baby can be a very tough decision. After all, it is at least the initial identity of that child and more than likely will remain so for his or her entire life.
Considering it is a very personal decision, I can only tell you my own personal thoughts on the names you're considering. Perhaps they will be helpful but of course the final decision has to be up to you.
Let's go down the list.
Aaron Bennett
- Aaron is OK but combining it with Bennett seems to give off a bit of a elitist vibe.
Joseph James "Joe"
- I have personally always liked these. Not super creative though.
Matthew David or Matthew Joseph "Matt"
- These are so, so.
Wesley Richard "Wes"
- Simple and strong, a little soap opera-ish though.
Calvin Clayton
- Sounds like a cheesy superhero alter ego.
Cole Brandon
- I like Cole but not Brandon.
Nicholas Andrew "Nick"
- Not a huge fan of Nicholas or any variations of it. Seems old-fashioned to me.
William Trent "Will"
- William is alright but I do prefer the shortened version or calling him Bill instead. Not big on Trent in any form.
Jacob Mitchell
- Seems kind of wussy for a lack of a better term.
Noah Daniel
- Also too old-fashioned.
Richard ? "Ritchie"
- Richard is decent, in other forms I like Rick.
Alexia Ann
- I like the double A thing here. Big fan of Ann but Alexia can sometimes sound a little promiscuous.
Addy Teresa (Teresa is after my mom)
- Addy is simple and sweet but Teresa comes across as old.
Kennedy Rebekah (Rebekah is after my aunt)
- No way for Kennedy, that's a last name not a first one. Certainly not for a girl either. Pretty cool spelling of Rebekah though.
Daisy Jane
- Cute but it might be a little too cute.
Emily Gwendolyn
- Emily yes, Gwendolyn, no way, not unless she is going to be living at renaissance fairs.
Jessica Elizabeth
- Simple, sweet, I like it.
Jane Elizabeth
- Pretty much the same reaction as above.
Meagan Ann
- Don't care for the spelling of Meagan (I prefer Megan) but love the name Ann. All in all pretty good.
Amy Lea (pronounced Lee)
- Believe that is the name of the singer from the band Evanescence.
Melissa Lea (pronounced Lee)
- These two work separately but not together.
MY PERSONAL FAVORITES:
For boys:
The old standbys of John, James, David, Daniel, Michael, Joseph (or basic variations)
For girls:
Shyanne, Kimberly Ann, Kristy

It's not what we think of the name. It's what you think of the name and whether you believe decades from now it's not a burden on the child.
You don't want something bland or uncommon but you don't want an exotic name or one that may have an unintended reaction ie: could be mocked or rhymed.
You want something that stands out for a male and is a strong sounding name when spoken. As for a female something feminine. Never chose a name that every kid seems to have these days unless it has special meaning to you and clicks.

I like:
Wesley Richard
I think it would be better if it was Brandon Cole
I like Nicholas Andrew
William Trent
Jacob Mitchell
And (though not on the list) it's someone I know's son's name but it's really nice: Parker Allen.
I'm not fond of the girl names but that's mainly because I prefer girl names to be more exotic. So I can't help you with that one. :) Good luck.

These names are nice if you like common names.
For the boy I'm not really fond of any of them but if I had to pick one I may go with Matthew.
The girl I am not fond of either lol but again, If I had to choose I may mix it up to Amy Rebekah.
I am more of an uncommon name type of person. I like these
Jarred
Benjamin
Jason
Vaniyah
Makiyah
Iris
Julianei (Julie-Ani)
It's about what you like, If you like common names then go with it. ;)
