Hey there new partner!
Here are my own name suggestions for the surname, maiden name and parents' names. Let me know whet you like and show me you're own suggestions as well.
Surnames: Dowling, Black, McCallum, Richardson, LaPlante, Hart, DeSantis, Von Essen, Richardson, Graven, Davies
Men: Donovan, Xavier, Malcolm, Julian, Louis, Armand, Declan, Fabian, Gideon
Women: Clara, Viola, Mariel, Bianca, Amalia, Lorelei, Renata, Matilda, Alexandra
And just so you have an idea of what I'm like:
-Popularity is not important to me. If I love a name, I'll use it.
-I have a very eclectic style, but tend to go for names that sound like they'd fit in a gothic story
-Meaning is not important to me.

Let's do one of your surnames as the family surname. I'll pick the maiden name from my list. Do you want each of us to name one parent or have one of us pick the first names and the other middle the middle name?

Can we name a parent each?
My favourite surname from my list was Galloway, is that okay?
If I named the husband, his name would be Josiah Declan. If I named the wife, her name would be Matilda Josephine.
So if you like my girls name or boys name best, just leave that one and name the other parent?
Sorry if the way I'm saying stuff is confusing.. lol I'm a bit tired.

Sorry it took me a while to answer, I had no internet at my job today :-/
Yeah that works out. And Galloway is great.
And I definitely get what you're saying. I like Matilda Josephine the best and was thinking of giving her the maiden name Black if that's okay.
Here are my combinations for the husband. Which of these do you like best?
Theodore Malcolm
Theodore Declan
Felix Gideon
Felix Declan
Henry Xavier
Henry Malcolm
Robert Julian
Robert Declan
Robert Xavier
Josiah Malcolm
PS - What ever names we don't use now we should still consider them for future rounds (and add on if we feel like it).
