Help! My husband and I can’t agree on a baby name for our little one! We don’t know the gender yet, so we have plenty of time, but I’m not someone to wait until the last minute. Our problem-- I lik names at are unique, while my husband is more old-fashioned. We do already have daughter named [name_f]Madilynn[/name_f] [name_m]Joe[/name_m]. Our last name is [name_u]Green[/name_u], so any color-related names are out. Lol. We do both like-- [name_u]Avery[/name_u] and [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] for a boy. I’m obsessed with [name_m]Knox[/name_m], [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u], [name_u]River[/name_u], and [name_u]Kit[/name_u] as well, but he isn’t. He likes [name_u]Elliot[/name_u], but I don’t. For girls we both like [name_u]Avery[/name_u] and [name_f]Makensie[/name_f], but I love [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f], [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f], [name_u]Dakota[/name_u], and [name_f]Roxanne[/name_f]. He hates them. Help!

And I’m out of ideas
Hmm I will throw out some names that come to mind based off some of the ones you’ve mentioned…
[name_u]Waverly[/name_u]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f]
[name_f]Coralie[/name_f]
[name_f]Daphne[/name_f]
[name_f]Zoe[/name_f], [name_f]Zoelie[/name_f]
[name_f]Colette[/name_f]
[name_f]Thea[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f]
[name_f]Kerensa[/name_f] (nn Kensie?)
[name_u]Lennox[/name_u]
[name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_m]Ford[/name_m]
[name_m]Heath[/name_m]
[name_u]Linden[/name_u]
[name_m]Forrest[/name_m]
[name_m]Thatcher[/name_m]
[name_m]Thayer[/name_m]
I would use [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] for a boy, [name_u]Makenzie[/name_u] for a girl.
I think, if you are using a first name that you’ve compromised on, then you should be able to choose a more “out there” name for the middle.
[name_u]Makenzie[/name_u] [name_u]River[/name_u]
[name_u]Makenzie[/name_u] [name_f]Nova[/name_f]
[name_u]Makenzie[/name_u] [name_u]Lou[/name_u]
[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u]
[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]Knox[/name_m]
[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_u]Kit[/name_u]
I wouldn’t use [name_u]Avery[/name_u] as a first name simply because it is so unisex, and next to [name_f]Madilynn[/name_f] I would assume [name_u]Avery[/name_u] was a boy… unless that is specifically why you like it. I prefer when siblings have clearly masculine or feminine names, but that’s just me.
