What about FOOD names?

I can't think of a single food item that i would use as a name. Can ya'll think of any?

Um, besides Apple.

A task for all you awesome name finders

Ok... As I've posted several times before, my top 3 names for girls are Caeslin Amari, Ainsley Brynn and Zoe Laine. A few people like these names, a few dont. That's not the question anyway=)

If you would, help me find some "less trendy/made up/popular-in-a-round-about-way" names I would love it.

Here's the criteria:

I generally don't like names in the top 100 (I know Zoe may be an exception). I don't like old sounding names (Vivian, Evelyn, Josephine, Grace). I tend to lean toward Gaelic names but am willing to move away from that.

The boy's names I love have also been split decisions for the community: Elijah Malachi (Which breaks my no top 100 preference again, but I love Elijah way too much to care) and Tidus Aaron (which I've been told looks made up, although it stems from the Biblical name Titus and we're just trying to keep our child from being called Tit-us every day of his junior high life). My new obsession (as of today) is Dathan, but I doubt I'll be able to convince my husband that it's a name worth considering.

Happy suggesting! (Please and thank you!--- also.. my apologies for all those stinkin parentheses.. I got a little side-note happy *grin*)

Ive been thinking more and more about names and I really do love the name Cole for a boy however Ive found it so hard to find a suitable middle name for it. Its very discouraging as I love the name.

However Ive also begun to love the name Grant. So Cole Grant.... does that sound good together... or no?

As for my top girls names they remain....
