Really stuck on boys names - done them to death with Ds1 and 2. Inspire me please!

I'm expecting twins in the summer, boy / girl.

We can think of lots of girls names, no problem, but we're really struggling with boys names.

It feels like we've done boys names to death already, and we're going over the same old ground, all names we rejected for DS1 and 2. They are Jasper and Edward (Ed) to give you an idea of our taste.

I really like Dominic but DH is having none of it. We're now drawing a blank.

Any ideas?

Girl contenders are Natasha, Lara, Clara, Tara (bit of a theme there!) Lauren, Zoe, to give you a clue. Not 100% set on anything yet though.
