Which do you like better for our baby

We are trying to decide between the following names, your help would be greatly appreciated!!
Cash Addison, Cash Gray, Cash Peyton,
Raleigh Gray, we like the name Raleigh but are having a hard time with a middle name so any suggestions you have would be great.
Thanks,
April

I just voted for Luca Gray in your poll, which I just love. If it were me, Addison would be out altogether for a boy. Grey's Anatomy has made it super-popular for girls, so even though it does end in -son, I'd lose it. Plus, it rhymes with Madison, another super popular girl name, and it's nearly identical to Allison, a feminine classic.
Working with Raleigh and Cash, I'd probably name him Raleigh Cash. I don't like the sound of Cash with any of the middle name choices because the one-syllable first name sounds harsh and abrupt next to the longer middle names. I don't mind Raleigh Gray and Raleigh Peyton, but I still prefer Luca Gray. Wonderful choice with that one!
To be honest, I don't love any of the mn's with Cash. Since Cash is so short, I would go with something longer-
Cash Montgomery
Cash Oliver
Cash Truman
Cash Kenyon
Cash Hewett
Cash Isaiah
Cash Broderick
Cash Desmond
Cash Lyndon
Cash Murdock
Cash Wesley
With your style, I would think about using a family surname. Try some of the above mn's with Raleigh too, see how they fit. I like Raleigh Anders or Raleigh Cazimir or Raleigh Caz a lot. Raleigh is a lot easier for mn's because it isn't one syllable, and so you can use one-syl mn's- Raleigh Beck, Raleigh Cade, Raleigh Thane. Raleigh Anson, Raleigh Griffith, and Raleigh Calder/Calman are also nice.
