    Something in between unusual and traditional

    Hi all,
    Im hoping you guys can help me out with some suggestions. Hubby and i have VERY different ideas on names for our bub. He likes traditional and i like unusual. So what im looking for is a name that isnt completely weird or made up, but not a name that every second baby has. I also like longer names that can have a cute nickname, and pretty girl names and masculine boys names.

    For example, the few ive suggested that he doesnt despise are Felicity, Harper and Finnley. Boys names are a bit harder - we both kind of like Thomas and Noah, but im not sold as i find them kind of common.

    Middle name will be Michael for a boy or most likely Jane for a girl (family names). Our surname starts with S and has two syllables

    Anyone have any suggestions?
