I am looking for some names that have a virtue meaning (doesn't have to be a literal virtue, like patience etc) for boys and girls.

Ruling our Grace, Faith & Hope for girls and Felix for boys.

Love Felicity and Constance but can't win DH over with those.

I love Felicity and Constance. They're both lovely names.

Some of my favourite virtue names (that aren't a literal virtue):
Verity (truth)
Blythe (happy, carefree)
Serenity (peaceful)
Reverie (ethereal, dreamlike state)
Liberty (I know that one is literal, but I think this is nice, especially with Libby as a nickname)

Also, I know it is quite literal, but I also really love the name Joy. I worked with a lovely lady named Joy years ago, and have loved that name ever since. I think it's an understated classic.

Hope this helped
