DH and I are kicking around baby names this evening but as usual he's being a pain in the proverbial and vetoing everything just because he can!
Does anybody have any suggestions for slightly unusual but still classy baby names? We're Team Green so I need boys and girls! So far we have the following on our list:
Saskia
Sarah
Pippa
Seth
Rory
Middle name is likely to be Edith for a girl or William for a boy.
Thanks!

A friend of mine has a little girl named Aniston and I love it. I would totally use it if she hadn't!

I have a friend whose little girl is Ada. I've always thought that was beautiful. For a little more unusual, I like Juniper, Marigold, Aster, Helena, Magdalena, Beatrice, Eden.
For boys Graham is the first thing that popped in my head! Clarke? Quentin? I'm bad at boy names because I like more run of the mill names for boys.

Classy or Classic?
When I think of classy, I think of women that have a given name and then a nickname, like Charlotte/Charky or Catherine/Caggy. Society nicknames, if you will.
