Combos, please

My husband says I'm taking this "name thing" too seriously, but I believe it is a very important decision and can have lasting psychological affects on the child. He says it is having psychological affects on me, and perhaps he is right. But anyway, I am back again because we cannot get our names straight!

I have a FINALIZED list of names. I am not looking for name suggestions, I am simply looking for some help with making combos. My problem is that I am afraid to save names for future kids in case we only have the one child. I hate the idea of not using some of my favorite names, so I want to hear what you berries think sounds nice together.

Boys:
Hugo
Calvin
Charles
York (mn only, honors family)
Elias
Oscar
Shepherd
Rowan
Jack
Graham
Dexter
Gordon

Girls:
Beatrice
Reid (mn only, honors family)
Wilhelmina
Frances
Eleanor
Lucy
Clara
Irene
Harriet
Evelyn

There are fewer girl names because genetics favor the boys.

Thanks for the help!

I hope this helps!

Thank you very much, erinlw! You have several combinations that didn't occur to me. My favorite girl names are Beatrice and Wilhelmina, but for some reason I was only seeing them as first names. I really like Beatrice Wilhelmina!

When I first saw Oscar Charles, I was wondering why I didn't think of it myself... then I remembered. Oscar and Charlie are both parts of the NATO phonetic alphabet, so I wouldn't want to use them together.
