Name Help!

[Marty93]

Hello all!

Me and OH are still wondering whether to find out the sex of our baby (our 1st) or leave it as a surprise. I'd like to have a surprise but only so I can have boy and girls names lined up!

The names we have so far that we like (although some of these are more to my liking than OH's!):

Girl:
Sophie
Amber
Elsie
Willow

Boy:
Franklin
Matthew
Henry
Joseph

But I feel like I need to have a few more to bounce between! I just struggle as every name I hear I find a reason not to like it.... "oh no I can't have Megan because I knew a megan at school and she was a b*%#!" ... etc!

Any other suggestions for quite traditional names or names that are unusual but not weird are very welcome :)!

Tate
Monty

I really like both Sophie and Henry. I know it's a bit dated but I got a baby name book and used it for all of mine. I literally went through from start to finish and made a list and narrowed it down that way.

I used several a baby name book as well and wrote all the ones I was prepared to consider, I was left with one choice for each so that was easy.

Sophie - lovely
Amber - nice
Elsie - no
Willow - maybe

Franklin - no
Matthew - lovely
Henry - lovely
Joseph - lovely

Elsie - meh

Alice
Sophia
Scarlett
