What's in a name?

So, I'm officially 32 weeks pregnant (and the fetus is weighs the same amount as a Jicama-- in case you wanted to know... the pregnancy website I subscribe to always compares the fetal size to food items). So we are down to 8 weeks (actually, it will probably be a little longer considering my history)-- BUT.... WE STILL DON'T HAVE A NAME! In fact, WE'RE NOT EVEN CLOSE! Brandon suggested the other day that we just don't name the baby and "it" goes by "No Name Haslam" the rest of his/her life (or until it could pick its own name-- but then we'd end up with a kid named "frankenstein" or something). I didn't think that was very funny. We are just really having a hard time this go around-- with both boy and girl names! It's very frustrating.

So Brandon likes the names:
BOY                                                                           
Cooper                                                                      
Benjamin                                                                   
Avett                                                                      
Ender                                                                                   
Alton

GIRL
Maya
Maze
Petra

and Valynn likes the names:
BOY
Brigham 
Theo
Gil
Clark

GIRL
Claire
Leisel
Georgia
Ruth


These are just some ideas and they are in no particular order.... what do you think? Any DEFINITELY NOs? In honesty, I don't know if any of these are what we'll end up with... but these are some of our ideas.  :)
