HelpTwin Names Update
I showed my husband the suggestions from the board and he voted on what he liked. I think the girls combo we liked best is:
Maia Naomi & Zoe Margaret
This is big progress for us, as we hardly ever agree on names! However, he nixed all the boys names - all of which he'd previously somewhat agreed to. Ugh! So I'm open to totally new suggestions...
Keep in mind, big brother is Corbin Michael and if there is only one girl, she'll be Maia Naomi. Thanks!!!

I really like Graham William and Elliot John. Both Graham and Elliot are not extremely popular names which is great. However, I also like Jeremy William and Wesley John. I just like Graham and Elliot a little bit better. (you're right this is a difficult process)
I agree with you that Maia Naomi and Elliot John are the better pair.

Maia is a good choice. I have always liked it along with Amaya. I would have used it myself, but a close friend of mine named her daughter Mya back in '04.
I can symphathize with you. My husband and I have the same dilemma when it comes to the topics of boys names. Do you have any guidelines to narrow the search? Is there anything that is off limits?
Good Luck!

I feel your pain. In the past, DH has said he doesn't really like names that end in N or Biblical names, which does eliminate a lot of names. I don't know if he's being this picky about boy's names because he is really hoping for just daughters or what. LOL

My hubby won't do biblical either! My 1st son from a previous relationship is Elijah, and he doesn't like it. I prefer Elijah over a 'made up' name like Rahine [his name] any day! It also doesn't help that I cannot stand my MIL and she just has to mention that she came up with the name. I was raised in an urban environment and I have met more than one Rahine in many variations.
He likes 'ethnic' names [Javon, Keyshaun] and doesn't mind weird spellings and apostrophes [i.e. L'Vonne], a personal pet peeve of mine. The names he likes are boring to me [ Eric, Devon, Christopher] or just horrible. I also don't have any good choices when it comes to family male names.
Here are some names I like:
Kieran
Kai
Malachi
Micah
Lance
Cameron
Damian
Isaac
Matteo
Reese

Luke - I really like Lukas. I might have to suggest this to DH again.
Jared - I like it, but my PhD advisor named his son this and I'd rather forget those 5 years. LOL
Evan - I like this, especially since it's a variant of John, but DH isn't convinced.
Garrett - DH actually like this name. I'm on the fence.
Maxwell nn Max - Corbin suggested this and I liked it. Maia and Max would be cute. :)
Duncan - DH has an uncle Dunc already.
Andrew - DH's family has two Andrews already.
Matthew - This is my cousin's name. :)
Bryce / Brice - I like this and it wouldn't be too far off from Brian, which is my BIL's name & one DH's really likes.
Ethan - I like this.
Trevor - This is one of my other cousin's names.
Travis - I like this and I think DH might too.
Zachary - We already have one in my family.
Owen - DH's cousin just named her son Owen this past March. :(
Isaiah - My cousin had a son last January she named Isaiah, but he passed away in June. :(
So... let's see....
