BABY NAMES, what are your faves?

[violets]

Okay, I have 5 pregnant women in my life right now all demanding I help them find the perfect baby name. (The pleasures of having tons of sisters.) You see, usually I'm pretty good at this, I am a voracious reader so I've gotten many of my ideas from my favorite books...but I think I'm running out of ideas, I need help. So, what are your favorites? Boy or girl, out-there, or eternally classic, I need them all...the 5 sets of parents have very different personalities so I need all kinds of suggestions.

Here are a few...

Girl:

Chloe
Cadence
Kyle
Lucy

Boy:

Colin
James
Reagan
Ty

NOTE -- But none of these are the best because those are secret! (Did anyone ever see the Sex and the City about Charlotte's secret baby name, Shayla?)

Isn't Kyle a boy's name? Reagan is the name of Linda Blair's character in The Exorcist. James will be happy that you like his name.

I also read lots of books (romance mostly).
The names I like are:

Samantha
Adrianna
Corinne
Magdalen or Magdalena (after my great aunt)
Melanie
Rosalie

Mathew
Tyler
Camren
Zane
Christian
Bradly

Kyle is also a girl name; I know four of them that are girls.

[Peaches-n-Cream]

I know a baby boy named Kyle and three girls named Kayla. That's similar.
I personally won't put down my hypothetical baby names because of SATC Shayla also.

First, yes, the SHAYLA episode was HYSTERICAL. I totally understand that we're not sharing our secret "Shaylas", that would be ridiculous. However, you know there are names that you love but you'd never be brave enough to name your own kid, well, some of these parents are BRAVE. I'm just trying to steer them away from a complete disaster!

So far the suggestions are fabu!
thanks!!!
