The wife and I are struggling for names and we’re running out of time. No idea what we’re having. Throw some names out there…
Please just make sure not to go too crazy with “unique” names or unusual spelling of a name. It causes a lot of issues and inconvenience for the offspring later in life. Saying this as someone who has a common name but spelled in an unconventional way… it’s such a headache, and a whole lot of “we can’t locate your file” because someone wasn’t listening to me when I spelled out my first name.
I like names that are uncommon enough to not be boring but not too out there. Also having a cool like origin/meaning is nice. Examples with meaning/origin and prominent figures sharing the name included:
Silas: Greek/Latin meaning Forest or “of the Forest” Silas Deane, founder of the Methodist Church
Wesley: Old English meaning west meadow Wesley Moore, current Governor of Maryland
August: Latin (Augustus) meaning magnificent Augustus Caesar, First Princeps of the Roman Empire
Audrey: Old English meaning noble strength Audrey Hepburn, American Actress
Evelyn: English and French (Aveline) meaning hazelnut Evelyn Waugh, English Novelist/Satirist
Florence: Latin meaning blossoming/flourishing. Florence Nightingale, Pioneer in the Medical Field

Whatever month they were conceived in. When they ask why it’s not the month they were born in, you can tell them “we liked how it sounded” until they’re old enough for the truth to be a tempting punishment. Also, congratulations.
It appears we are having a March

You could also go with Aquamarine for the birthstone, which means seawater, lol.

Cronkite. Strong name!
Not sure if this helps the struggle, but I used this app with my wife to name our kid. You link accounts and both swipe for names you like, when you get a match it tells you. It’s kinda fun too.
