I like Matthew for a boy and Maya for a girl. Some other options are:

Mikaylah(spelled numerous ways)
Matilda
Mahleah
Micah
Morgan(works for both sexes)
Marcus
and many more. Those are all unique and strong names to fit your style. Good Luck to you!!!!

I voted for Matthew. I think it's a wonderful classic! I'm tired of Madeline already, Molly/Mollie feel nicknamey to me (even though my rational brain knows they work just fine of adult women, I know three!). Maya feels like a trendy name to me. Not that it's a bad thing, I just think Maya's going to end up one of those names that dates it's owner. In 30 years, any Maya you know will be between 30 and 40, I think. I'd avoid it just because of that.
The others on your list, I'm not fond of.
Here are a few more suggestions for 'M' names:
Girls - Mae/May, Maeve, Magdalena, Marina, Margaret/Marguerite, Matilda/Mathilde, Melisande, Melora, Merewin & Milena.

Boys - Magnus, Malcolm, Max/Maximilian, Micah, Miles/Milo, Mordecai, Morgan & Moses.
