Baby Name Ideas?

As most of you know, my girlfriend is pregnant. We would like other people's help on ideas for baby names. She likes Austin for a boy and Kayleigh for a girl. I like Conner for a boy and Avery for a girl. We just want to hear others' ideas on new names or opinions on our own. Middle names would be nice too.

Jesse for a guy I think is pretty cool aswell, or Johnny.
Anyway, I've always liked the names Dante and Adrian for boys. I think there's a girl version too (Adrienne?).
Oh yeah, sorry. My last name is Nickleby.
That name has serious potential for some class.
Like, I know a guy named Chadwick. Chadwick Nickleby would rule.
Kelsey for a girl's name maybe? Sandie?
I'd go for Tom or Nick; both will age well and sound fairly cool to boot.
Nigel. Nigel Nickleby? pimp supreme!
In seriousness, how about Jarvis? I think that'd go good with Nickleby (you're right, Dante doesn't go with Nickleby at all).
Only go with Nick if you're a Dickens fan.
Avery is typically a mutual name for either Gender. As well as Peyton.
I like Erin and Lynn for girls, as well. I like Alexia but it's not a name that works with Nickleby.
Give your son a middle name like 'Remington'. It'll be a surprise burst of class.

you can call him max, alex, or xander,
Emma is like, the #1 girls name of the past 2-3 years, that and Emily. So name her that if you want funny stories about the 3 other Emmas in her classes.
My only other advice is, please don't be one of those people who feels like they need to take a common name and change the spelling in inexplicable ways to make their kids unique.
Or Lex.
I could not imagine living my life as a Tom, Nick, Chris, Jack, Mark or other common, single-syllable name, and I'm thankful that my parents named me well.
It is perhaps worth noting that I changed my surname by deed poll recently, as my family's surname was common, dull and did not mesh well with my given name in pronunciation, style or meaning. On changing my name to Phoenix Wilder, I have experienced an even more exaggerated reaction from workmates and society at large than what I detailed earlier. It could be argued that this is all in my head, perhaps trying to make up a justification for going through the rigamarole of a legal name change, but I've always prided myself on being a man of reason and from my observations people truly do seem even more impressed and inclined to like and follow me, regardless of my actions. This is not a thread about surnames, obviously, but I thought it was another interesting note on the power of a good name.
I've always liked Titania as a girl's name. It conjures images of reliability and endurance, wonderful traits to see in a grown woman. I also can't see any way in which it can be crudely shortened by schoolchildren, or have any syllables replaced by body parts of functions, which is also a plus when growing up.
Take note of the bold parts.
And think.. think hard
Hyuck.
You can't see a way schoolchildren could shorten Titania?
At any rate, I'm of the opinion that you should go with an older name. Somethink like Frank for a boy or Evelyn for a girl.
I don't believe it - I'm on my THIRD PS3, and my FIRST XBOX360. What the heck?
Nora!
[name] names meaning
and that'll tell you what it means.
I'd stay away from any names starting with an N, it just doesn't sound right to me.
I always liked "Iris" if it's a girl.
In high school there was another guy who almost had the same last name as I did.
Brianna
also Jack Nickleby does sound great
Brooke, Lara, Nora, Arielle (Do not confuse with Ariel)
Check out my art! Buy some prints!
Personally I've always liked plants for girl's names; Rose, Rowan, Juniper, Acacia and so on. Maybe not Juniper. Months are also an old classic (I once knew three sisters named April, May and June respectively in order of age).
For boy's names I tend towards the various biblical names that don't get much love; Aaron, Daniel etc.
Or if you wish to be a total geek, you can lift names from Tolkien and no-one who is ever likely to figure it out will have anything but respect for your awesomely named child. ;-)

Maybe a better example would be Zacharias or Methuselah.

For some reason, that reminds me of The Great Gatsby.
Anyway, Luke Nickleby does have it's charm.
Boys-
Lex TIMES INFINITY- Alexander is basically the best name in the universe. Face it.
I met a kid named Jet once. Obviously, he was a total badass.
Takes the right guy to pull it off, but Wolfgang is all kinds of striking.
Joaquin is pretty cool.
Girls-
Embren- It's just pretty.
Trinity- Yeah, I actually know a Trinity. If you can put up with the constant Matrix references, it's a cool name.
Cesaria- is cool as shit.
