Help Me!! Name troubles

ok so I am having problems with names and I need help. I just cant really think of any boy names that I really like or that we can agree on.
I want the names to be somewhat unusual but not weird as well as the baby will be bi-racial (black/White) So i want something that is a good comprimise culturally!

For girl names my boyfriend really likes

Sarai
or
Adrianna (A-dree-on-uh)

the last name is Walker.

How do you feel about these names? I am undecided. I like both of them but I am unsure.
What about a MNs???

We find out if its a boy or girl in Beg. of Jan so I can start to narrow down soon.

Sarai is interesting, very biblical-sounding to me, though...if I may offer a suggestion, what about something like:


Saraya? It has a component of the name Sarai, and yet it sounds more bi-racial to me...just a thought.


As far as Adrianna goes, I typically see it as a lovely yet very Italian name. I don't know if this name would actually honor both heritages as you would like.


Well, best of luck to you!

Those are the two names my boyfriend came up with and he is the one who is fixed on having a good mix not too "white" or "black" Thanks for your imput. I think that Saraya is also really pretty. I am open to all suggestions boy and girl! THANKS

I know a little boy who is bi-racial named Tate. He and the name are adorable! I love your girl name choices~!

I do like that name I think used to think it was so cute till i met a guy named Tate that I really dislike. and i need to stop this cuz i will never pick a name if i keep associating it with people i dont like. HA! Thanks again everyone for your help.

The Girl names that I like best so far are : Sarai (sa-rye) or Saraya (sa-rye-uh)
(will have to discuss this with the BF since he is really stuck on Serai) or Kaia/Kya.
Maybe.... Kaia Sarai Walker (last name) Does that ryhme too much? Too many vowels?

But now that I have a better idea of girl names I bet it will be a boy. Oh well I still have 5 months to go.
