Names.
The following we plan use, for certain, for girls:
Rowan Margaret Adams (I prefer as a girl-name)
Hazel Elizabeth Adams
The following I quite like, not positive about middle names:
Willow Adams, Linden Adams, Laurel Adams
(would love to use Laurel and Linden for twin girls)
We are highly fond of tree names. For the first two, I love how the names sound together, and the middle name is more traditional and offers plentiful nick-names, so there will be options if the wee one doesn't care for their first.
Boys:
James William Adams
Robert Fraser Adams
We like traditional/Scottish names for lads. He was born there, and we will be living there.
Other names I love or am fascinated by:
Roisin, Gweniviere/Geniveve/Gwendolyn, Cerys, Rosalind, Olivia, Isabel, Nora (Annora/Anora? Onora?), Evelyn/Aibhlin, Sophie, Avery, Audrey, Fae/Faye, May, Lark, Sibyl/Sibeal, Bran, Branwen, Elaine/Helaine (Laine), Iseult/Isolde, Lisanor/Eleanor/Eileanora, Elvina/Evelyn/Evelina, Swanhild, Aisling/Aislynn, Cadhla, Ciara/Ciaran, Fionghuala, Liadan, Maeve, Madeleine, Maura/Moira, Mavourneen, Niamh, Quinn, Emmeline, Morgan/Morwen, Meredith, Nerys, Olwen, Wynne, Hannah, Seraphine, Sylvia, Adele, Aurora, Estelle.

You like a lot of names that I like! I've always been enchanted by old Irish/Gaelic/English/Welsh names, partly because I love the literature and language and history of those places, and partly because a great deal of my heritage originates in those places.
I love: Roisin, Guinevere (like this spelling best), Carys (like the "a" better than the "e"), Audrey, Bronwen (my favorite spelling), Elaine, Isolde, Elinor (I like this spelling due to the character in Sense and Sensibility), Evelyn, Aislinn (I like this spelling the most), Ciaran, Liadan, Maeve, Niamh, Morgan, Meredith, and Olwynne.
Yay for awesome taste in names! :oD And I'm jealous that you're going to live in Scotland. I went there for the first time last summer and fell in love. *sigh*

Ayla [AY-la] and Eila [EYE-la] both mean "oak tree".
I love both and have a tough time deciding which spelling/pronunciation I like best, but I think either could fit well with your style as a first or middle name.

i like Robert Fraser best.
the other names i like from your list: Roisin (it's gaelic and i plan on using it lol), Gwendolyn, Olivia, Onora, Evelyn, Sibeal, Branwen, Maeve, Medeleine, Quinn, Meredith, Wynne, Hannah, Sylvia, & Adele.
I personally like the spelling 'Bronwynn' but the name pronunciation is the same so i could go either way.
