Following DH's surrender to my active lobbying..

..I get the final say on DC2's first name (dancing on the coffee table :o ) while DH will choose the middle name from a duly approved list I am supposed to give him.

And this is where I need some ideas! I am looking for artsy or unusual middle names for a boy or a girl, if possible with a connection to Scotland and not ending in "ia" or "a" for the girl names.

So far I have:
Sibylle or Sibyl
Zelie
Berenice
Blair
Albane

Andrew
Ezra
Ivan or Ivo
Alan or Allen

Do you have other ideas?

First name for a girl will probably be Antonia (alternative choice: Octavia) and for a boy, it will be a tie between Gabriel and Barthelemy.
Second middle name will either be Martha or Maurice.

Should it not by Sybil/Sybille?

I'd possibly avoid Antonia Blair!!
