I personally really love Gage, and Arlen has potential as well. Gage is very strong though, I like it a lot.

Thanks for your suggestions. I like the sound of 'Gage' as a middle name but can't wrap my head around it as a first name. I also LOVE the sound of 'Arlen' but think something about it looks feminine, kwim? Maybe 'Arlan' or 'Arland' would be good alternatives? Funny enough, my husband actually has 'Ronan' on his list.
For the girls, the only thing I have considered is 'Giselle' although I still wonder about the proper pronouciation (Gi-sell, Ji-sell, Jiz-ell?) It looks pretty though!
Any other suggestions would be great, I know this isn't the easiest one!
