Me and my SO have been trying to chose a name that we both like. We have found a lot of names for boys that we like;

Ben(jamin)
Jude
Adam
Oscar
Max

The only girls name both of us agree on is Claire. But we'd like some back up names just in case. He seems to like quite simple sounding names, not too popular, but not unheard of.

Most of the names I like - he doesn't.
Stella, Ruby, Lily, Mila.

I like a lot of the names he suggested, but don't really want to give them to my daughter.
Alice, Kate, Amy, Jane.

I don't know. I am at a loss. He doesn't seem to like anything. I have looked on Nymbler and came back with nothing. Any ideas? Suggestions? Fingers crossed for a boy, lol.

I like all of these names! The only one I don't love is Mila.

For a boy, I'd go with Oscar Jude or Jude Benjamin.

Ideas for girls:
Norah
Eliza
Meg (short for Margaret? Megan?)
Anna/Annie
Hazel
Lucy

Claire is my favorite girl's name, so of course I'd petition you to go with that, but here are some other thoughts:

Nora(h)
Lucy
Emma
Sarah
Elizabeth

Adam is one of my favourites. And how can he NOT like your girls names? I think they are all lovely!

Well, my aunt's name is Claire. My mom's name is Ann, and her other sisters are Patricia (Tish), Kathleen (KL/Kath), and Janet. I think they all go together pretty well. Other names you both might like:
Marie
Celeste
Elise
Carrie
Kylie (Although it's kind of popular at the moment)
Sadie
Sophie/Sophia
Julie/Julia
Sasha (This is bound to become more popular though)
Nina

Idk, that's off the top of my head. I might leave an additional comment later.

Of your boys names I like Benjamin and Oscar.

Of the girls names I like Lily and Mila.

Jane is okay for a middle name but too plain for a first name I think.

I'm not a big fan of Adam or Max, but they aren't terrible.

I like Claire a lot, because it's my name ;] I'm not big on Stella, Ruby, Lily or Mila. My boyfriend has a pet turtle named Ruby :\

It's a shame that he doesn't like any of your suggestions since they are all beautiful. I like Alice, too.

Since our taste seems to be quite similar here are some of my other favorite names:
Anita
Anja
Carla 
Elisa
Frida 
Irene 
Malin

I love the boys name... except Oscar. I'm not a big fan of Oscar...


I like Claire but I automatically see it as a middle name.
Brooke
Hannah
Alison
Mia
Blair
Paige
Leigh
Dana
Jenna
Amber
Pearl

Thumbs down to Pearl.

Jane Austen is probably my favorite female ever, so I personally love the name Jane.

Oh the name Max. I associate that with one of my friends right now :). Jude and Max also remind me of The Beatles.
Stella and Ruby reminds me of "Anne of Green Gables".

I know people named Alice (well, Elizabeth Alice, but she goes by her middle name as an alias sometimes), Kate, Amy, Ben, Adam (and obviously Max).

Our name tastes seem very similar! I prefer Milla instead of Mila, though.

My SO suggested Isabelle, and I wasn't fond of it, but I now adore Isabel!

Other names he might like:
Emilie/Emily/Amelia
Mia
Sophie
Anna/Hannah/Annabel
Lucy/Lucia/Lucielle
Ella
Ellie/Elle
Zoe
