Future-baby may be here sooner than I initially thought (think: in the next two years) which I'm really happy about but I'm so super-fussy about names. I have a list, then I hate it an throw it away and start over!

Anyway, I'm from a huge family (my mom has 40 cousins!) and I don't want to 'steal' any names from anyone else. I'm also a teacher and seem to therefore have conotations associated with just about every name. I like classic names, traditional ones I can imagine my mom and nan saying without thinking... 'what?!'

Here's what I have so far. I really like the boy's name George but my partner doesn't ("it's too old-fashioned") but it's also taken by a friend of mine. His favorite name is Joshua (but I have bad associations of that name.) For girls, I don't have anything I really like but Selena is super-traditional in my family and used for generations. I like it OK, and could use it if I was desperate.

Any ideas or suggestions of where to start?

I start with astronomy and mythology, but then, I'm weird.
