I like Ayla and Ione Rain. I like Jasper, but only as a boy's name. I guess as a mineral/nature name it could be unisex, but it just doesn't work for me. Don't care for the filler mns Renee, Leigh or Dawn at all. Loradonna is ok... I'd prefer just Lora I think.
Durc would confuse a lot of people thinking it was spelled like Dirk -- which reminds me of porn stars btw.
Thomas is ok, but pretty dull imo. I like it more in its full form, than with the nn Tom or Tommy.
And welcome to the naming world. Don't feel silly about it; there's a lot of us name freaks out there. I've been collecting and studying names, and posting in various online naming communities for close to 10 years now. You don't have to be pregnant to be allowed to think about names or have opinions. :)
