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?!

Thanks everyone! Lots of ideas here...

We have added Eli and rafe to the (very short) list of names we both like.

Dp is so keen on Valentine he wasn't to add it as a third middle name Hmm I'm not convinced seeing as my surname is going to be the last middle name! How long does a name need to be fgs?! Grin Equally, he won't agree to have our agreed middle name as the first name with Valentine as the middle name, which was my suggested compromise.

Argh! Why is this so difficult?!

There's lots on here I like! have you thought about finding older spellings of names that people think are new, might balance your two tastes, for instance I have a Caeden which these days tends to be Kayden or Kaiden neither of which I like.
