Just going with biblical names based on the two you said you like. Can you not use David or is it just thinking of other options? If you want non biblical ideas too, just say!

We've a Miriam. Our boys names were Reuben, William, Jacob, Joshua, Michael and Edward.

OT names that imo have a vibe like Miriam and David:
Daniel
Benjamin
Joseph
Samuel
Nathaniel

Non-OT names with the same vibe:
Peter
Anthony
Nicholas
Christopher
Paul
Mark
James
John
Simon
Simeon

And Timothy.

We both like both David but we want other similar options. Miriam or Sarah are pretty much agreed for a girl. We can't agree on any boys OT names so we're trying to cast our net further too. DH is uninspired by many names I suggest. Kier is too Scottish labour party, Edward is a ridiculous English prince etc etc....

I love the name Miriam. Also Mariam, the Arabic version.

You might like Robert, Daniel, Jacob/James, Michael, Joseph.
