Suggestions Like Haven and Aiden

So, I have talking to my cousin who is expecting her first in April. She does not know what she is having, but she does plan on finding out. We have been talking about names and I thought I would ask you all if you have additional suggestions.

Her favorite names so far are Haven for a girl and Aiden for a boy. She seems to like the trendier names anyway and her definitely of "old lady" names is still a generation behind many on here. ( e.g. she does not like Ruth, but she has started to like Margaret. And she hates my favorite name, Georgiana!)

Her husband, on the other hand, does not seem to like names that he is not used to and he is from the mid-west. And it is not so much that he likes a certain type of name, he just dislikes all names that he is not super used to. Although, he has not vetoed Haven.

Can you suggest some names that are both trendy and also seem familiar? Names like Haven and Aiden?

My only thought at the moment is Blythe - it could be trendy, but is not too much so.

I say Cayden or Caden for a boy but I am not big on the Aiden, or ending in "den" but I say Caden.

Oh, how about Cadence? And I really like Nolan and Caitlin.

Thank you so much. Twinkle, I think she may like Cadence. And Lemon, you have suggested so many wonderful names. I will call her tomorrow and she what she thinks. Then, I'll let you know what she says.

Oh, and the reason I posted on the Girl's board is that her husband is giving her a harder time about girl's names. So, even more girl's names would be helpful.

Best wishes you and your family!

My niece is named Haven Louise. I think it is a great name.

The name Avery springs to mind for a girl.
