What's In A Name

Naming a baby is hard!!! I've been reading book after book, and going to naming websites, etc. I want to pick a boy name and a girl name before we find out the gender. My girl name list is longer than the boy name list by far. Ricky is really picky, too. I think the boy name will be Izak Orion Hawkins. Some other boy names we are considering (either for 1st or middle):

Constantine, Dante, Jasper, Brendon, Sylas, Levi, Camdon

We dont want a name ending in 'on' or 'an' or 'in' for a first name because we don't want it to rhyme with Tristan. Sylas was our second choice for Tristan, but there was recently a 'Silas' born at our church.

For a girl, we really like Vaida Kailyn Hawkins. My family insists she would be made fun of and called Darth Veda. We also are playing with the spelling of that. Veda, Vada, Vaida, Veida, Vaeda, etc. We want people to at least know how to pronounce it (VAY-da). Some other girl names:

Arabella, Arabelle, Anabella, Anabel, Presephone, Charlotte, Scarlette, Lydia, Madelyn, Adelaide, Adeline, Rosalie, Raena, Kaelyn, Cadence, Amelina
