I really like Tessa or Alexandra, and Georgie if it's a nickname for Georgina.
For a boy - Daniel is my favourite there.

I really like Adara, Tessa and Alexandra.
I like all your boys' names. Daniel would work in the middle with any of the others.

Georgie and Alexandra are very cute for girls, and Sean is way above the other names for a boy.
I don't like Carly but quite like Carla.
As a PP said, Daniel is nice as a middle name.
The others are all nms.

Georgie is too much of a NN, it would be better if you used Georgina as suggested. That wuold be my pick from the girls list, however if you used Carla instead of Carly, I would put that down as well.
I am not really a fan of the boys names, but Daniel is the most classic.

Tessa and Flynn would be my pick from those.

Girls:
Adara- don't mind
Tessa (Tess)- Tessa with Tess as a nickname only is gorgeous
Alexandra (Alex)- lovely
Georgie- I think this is lovely as a nickname only to Georgia, Georgette or Georgiana. I've never liked Georgina though.
Carly- ok, but I'd too much prefer Carla
Boys:
Daniel- very nice
Flynn- very nice
Finn- I love this as a nickname only to Finlay
Sean- very nice
Tessa and Daniel are my picks from the list as if but if you would consider Finlay with Finn as a nickname only I'd choose that instead of Daniel.

I have a Finn - so that's an easy pick

Out of your girls, I would chose Alexandra and Alex as nn.
good luck!

I love Georgie from your list, obviously!!!
When she was born we got a lot of comments from the midwives funnily enough saying they loved it and thought it was so much better than Georgia which they hear all the time.

Girls:
Adara - NMS but okay
Tessa (Tess) - Cute on a little girl, not so sure about an adult
Alexandra (Alex) - Lovely, but very common
Georgie - Sounds like a nickname, prefer Georgia.
Carly - NMS but okay - not something you see around much any more, but I've met a few nice ones.
Boys:
Daniel - I love this, and it would be on my short list, but I automatically think of an awful news story when I hear it
Flynn - Nice
Finn - NMS
Sean- Nice
