We have middle names picked out but no first names...would love some suggestions

My husbands middle name is Mark so we would like to use that for a MN
My middle name is Marie & we want to use that for a MN

does anybody like any of these combos?

girl: Sutton Marie, Hayden Marie, Mackenzie Marie, Chayse Marie?
boy: Christian (or Kristian)Mark, Kael Marcus, Alexander Mark or Nicholas Mark?

any other suggestions? our daughter is Taylor Alexis

Girls: Sutton is so unusual I think she'd get "what?" when she said her name. Hayden sounds like a boy's name plus she'd have to spell it ALL the time. Too many Mackenzies. It's too trendy and IMO too cutesy. Chayse is like Hayden. Too boyish, too last name-ish and spelling is very problematic. Sorry! Of those choices, I would go with Marie as a first name.

Boys: Christian is getting somewhat popular, but still not over the top. I would go with the standard spelling. Kael too unusual. Is it pronounced Kale like the vegetable? Alexander and Nicholas are good solid boys names, IMO. Both popular, but not trendy.

First of all I LOVE your daughters name! How cute! Of your choices I like Hayden and Chayse the best for a girl. I like Alexander and Nicholas the best for a boy.
Hope this helps!

For a girl I would have to say MacKenzie Marie (even though I loathe the name), because its the only one from the list that is easily recognizable as a "girl's" name. For a boy I like Alexander Mark.

I am going against the grain here, I like Sutton & Chayse Marie. I really like Kael, but IMO it needs a longer MN(markus). I also like Christian.

I love Taylor Alexis and would stick with something similar for a girl. Maybe Tiffany Marie or Tabitha or Trinity?? Of those you had listed, I prefer Mackenzie. For a boy, keep in mind you could also use Markly (or Markley) to make the name flow. If a first name to match your daughter is desired, I'd think about Tatum, Tyler (maybe too similar), Traeden. Just a few ideas.

Have fun choosing!

Sutton Marie is the only one of your girls names I like much. Hayden and Chase are very much boy names to me and any of the Mc-names is NMSAA.

I like Alexander the best, but it still isn't a name I like all that much.

Some other ideas for you that work with Taylor:

Lila Marie
Natalie Marie
Julia Marie
Paige Marie
Riley Marie

Andrew Mark
Zachary Mark
Logan Mark
Ethan Mark

My son is Christian Marc ! My DH is Mark and he wanted Christian's name spelled with the "c".So I like that name best.
I like Sutton Marie for a girl.
