Cool idea for a topic. My fiance and I talked about this a while back, my opinions were are follows

Guys:
Octavion
Aidyn
Alexander
Julius
Haydn
Trajan
Hadrian
Antony

Girls:
Aeris
Morrigan
Medina
Aria
Isabella
Celes

My fiance was quite receptive to my girl names, but hated all of my guy names for some odd reason.

*sigh* I always wanted to name my son Octavion too.

Maybe that's because all of your guy names are dead Greek and Roman guys.

Aeris is pretty.

"Morgan" is actually a pretty common girl's name here in America. Mine is all about the cool spelling though.

Now what's wrong with Taisto? There was a Stalinist party leader in Finland with that name in the seventies!

A STALINIST PARTY LEADER!

It doesn't get much better than that, folks.

now yo u are just being silly.

That's as much a death sentence as naming a boy sue.

I like Aerie for a girls name. Stolen from Baldur's Gate 2 of course. Yes I know I play that game too much.

Wolf. I really like that. I have a feeling that my future wife probably won't let me name my son that, though.

Well my middle name is Brian. It may come in handy if I go to english speaking countries, since I really don't want them to try (and fail miserably) to pronounce my real name.
