Baby names?

I am trying to come up with a good list of potential baby names. We think we might have it narrowed down to a few, but I want to gather all suggestions before really getting down to thinking about it. So, if you have a suggestion, please leave it in a comment for me! I am accepting both boys' names and girls' names because the gender will be a surprise :) Oh and I am really looking for something classic/old-fashioned, yet neither too common nor too strange. Thanks!

Emilia - for your great grandmother. A classic and beautiful name.

Annie - adorable

Oliver - adorable

Harlan - very big and strong

Claire - what we almost named you

Bina (not just because I like her but I also like her name a lot)

Camilla - because she's the best person I know

I love Emilia! Very cute..but Drew was going to be Claire if he was a girl, so I like that too. I also like Theresa (Tessa).
I like Owen or Ian for boys. I also just met someone who was going to name their baby Reid and I thought that was cool.
Can't wait to meet him/her!!

Oh, I agree with Sarah. Theresa is another of my choices - Tessa - because St Theresa was my mother's family patron saint and in the car, on the way to your wedding, I smelled roses even though there weren't any in the car. Roses are a St Theresa of the Little Flower scent. So,I knew that my grandmother was giving you her blessing that day.
Felicia is also a nice girl name and of course, Lily but Lucy and Lily would be a stretch.
Mom

Mom

I will share my next favorite girl's name (after Lucy of course) because even though we will definitely use it some day, you could use it too! I wouldn't mind since we are so far apart. :)

Girl - Eleanor (you can call her Elle or Ellie or Ella, we prefer Elle)
*I also love the name Camilla that someone else suggested. What about Mary? I just love the name Mary.

Boy - I love Wyatt (my sister is about to name her baby that in less than 2 weeks) It is a family name for us. I love Oliver as well. Also like Andrew. And I like Samuel, Ethan, and Elijah (Eli).

I always liked the name Alexander/Alexandra. Emma (after the Jane Austen character, not the Friends' baby). Matthew. Katherine (Kitty, Kate, Katie, Kathy).

And I love the Theresa(Tessa) suggestion.

Then of course, there is always Ladona or Elaine. ;-)
