Michael and I decided on names for our baby (we aren't finding the sex so we needed two names).

Tristan Michael for a boy. Tristan is welsh/english/celtic for "riot" or "tumult" (In Celtic legend Tristan was sent to Ireland in order to fetch Isolde, who was to be the bride of King Mark of Cornwall. Instead, Tristan and Isolde end up falling in love). Michael is hebrew for "who is like God?". Husband's name is Michael and I fell in love with the name Tristan after watching "Legends of the Fall". I'm not a huge Brad Pitt fan or anything, I just love the name.

For a girl we came up with Kimberly Michelle. Kimberly is english for "From the meadow of the royal fortress" and Michelle is the lady version of Michael. I'm not fond of the name Kimberly, but it was the only girl's name that he has a opinion about. He also doesn't like Tristan too much (his other option was Holden and he was against it) so I felt the need to let him pick the girl name.

I love the name Tristan (I'm bias... I'm a Trista - the female version of the name).

Kimberely isn't for me... really 80's, especially with the middle name Michelle.
