Dp and I are expecting our first baby in July, and at this rate he's going to be nameless!!

Dp has very er... Adventurous tastes. I am not opposed to something unusual, but not dp's level of crazy!

Examples of names I like-
Isaac
Cameron
Kieran
Seth
Sebastian
Finn

Examples of names dp likes-
Hudson
Malachi
Ranulph
Valentine
Efren

Can anyone help us find a middle ground before my head explodes?!

Malachi' s Irish meaning my messenger/my angel . another Irish one is Oisin (pronounced oysheen) it means 'little deer', I knew a little boy with that name and liked it.

I liked Fergus when I was last preggers but it was a girl!
There are two local boys I know called Cooper and Mason and I always think they're cute names. I quite like the American way of using surnames as first names.
