A few names for boys and girls...

hello everyone,
Just wanting some opinions on a few names I've been thinking of for our second bub. We're not finding out the sex, so will have to prepare a boy's name and one for a girl.
Our first daughter is called
Lucia Bella

For a girl I am liking Maya Sofia - but is Maya a really popular name now?
Any other suggestions for similar types of names?

Boys,
Dante Lorenzo
Lorenzo ....need some middle names
Leonardo
Leon
Jude

any feedback/help would be greatly appreciated :)

Instead of Maya you could go for Amaya which is similar but not the same.

Leon and Dante are good choices

I LOVE the name Sofia, can't say I know of any girls with the name Maya so i'm not sure if its too popular or not. Sorry

I love Maya. It's a beautiful name. I havn't heard it often either so maybe not too popular yet.
I like Leon for a boys name

I adore the name Maya. I know the name is out there but I don't know anyone personally with that name. Maya Sophia is lovely.

I love the name Dante, but I may be biased! ;)
Leon would be my second choice.

Goodluck deciding.

Nice choice

Maya is lovely, I haven't met anyone with the name Maya.
A similar name was Miah (My-ah) the name of Nate's baby girl in the HBO show Six Feet Under - I recall first hearing that name when the show was on and I thought it was cute.

I really like Jude in your list of boys names.

What about Chloe Sophia? I like Maya but do think it is getting up there in the popularity. Love Jude, 'Jude Leon ...'
