A good friend of mine named her baby boy Brayden last year and I love it. I also really Mia but it reminds me of the singer...in a great way...jmo. Caleb is also a great boys name. Try to see how they flow. Use one girl name and one boy name a week and see how you like them by the end of the week. You have til Oct so take it easy and don't stress! I have 2 months left and am still lost but the name will come hopefully by D-Day!

Easy to narrow down for me

I love Wade
I like Caleb and Cameron

I love Mia and Cecelia
I like Carly

There are a few I really really don't like:
Clint
Channing (reminds me of Carol Channing and sounds girly somehow)
Rylie (with the Riley spelling I would really like it though)
Kimber

I like ...

Boys: Lance, Caleb, Wade

Channing made me think of Carol Channing immediately, so it sounded a bit too feminine for me, and Braden, Cameron and Rylie (only with this spelling, which looks like one of the many unisex variations) are a bit too trendy for my tastes.

Girls: Abigail, Cecelia, Lilian (and would also really like Anastasia with this spelling and Mia as a nn for Amelia)

I don't really care for Carly or Kimber at all (I did know a girl named Kimber and she was always asked if her parents forgot the -ly or teased about how it rhymed with "timber").

You have some of my favorite names on your list:

For a boy, I choose 1) Lance 2) Curtis 3) Wade.

For a girl, 1) Alayna 2) Cecilia 3) Kimber

I like Reilly for a boy - but only with this spelling.

I love Caleb, Cameron, Mia, Abigail, Lilian, and Cecelia. Here is my ranking of the names you've listed. For the ones that I don't like, I've noted why. Hope this helps! Good Luck!

Boy:

1) Caleb
2) Cameron
3) Wade
4) Clint
5) Curtis
6) Lance
7) Braden (seems very trendy to me)
8) Channing (It's hard for me to see this as a first name, but if it's a family name or has special significance it could grow on me)
9) Rylie (this seems very feminine, especially with this spelling)

Girl (the first four are really tied in my opinion - I think they are all great):

1) Cecelia (I also love Celia and Cecily)
2) Abigail
3) Lilian (I Love the nn Lily, but I think it's getting pretty popular)
4) Mia (I love Amelia nn Mia)
5) Carly (this feels like a nn to me. I love Caroline or Charlotte nn Carly)
6) Adina (Adina is nms, but Addie is a very cute nn.)
7) Allayna (this spelling is really nms at all. I absolutely LOVE the name spelled Elena. Alayna or Alaina are OK, but Allayna just looks misspelled to me. If spelled differently, this would be one of my favorites)
8) Anastacia (I much prefer the spelling Anastasia but even though it's a pretty name, I just can't get Cinderella's wicked stepsister out of my mind!)
