Need a baby name asap

I am having baby #3 in 5 days!! I still don't have a name. My hubby and I cannot agree on anything. We don't know if we are having a boy or girl. I am desperate for suggestions. Our two kids both start with an A, and are very traditional names. We didn't plan the A theme, but it happened. I am not stuck on the idea of another A baby. It seems kind of forced to me, but it is important to dad. If we have a boy I know the middle name will be Steve after my dad who recently passed away. Our last name is one syllable that starts with ST.

Some of my favorites so far are
Nicholas
Lucas

Emma
Madilyn
(love both, but seem too popular now)

Hubby likes
Colton
Peyton
Bailey

Alyssa
Aliya

Help!!

I think if you already have 2 kids iwth A names, it would be kind of weird to not use an A name this time (someone would always feel "different)". How about:

Boys:
Aaron
Adam
Alan
Aidan
Alec (htought you might like this, reminds me of Nicholas and Lucas in feel)
Alexander (nn Alex)
Andrew
Alastair

Girls:
Anna
Annabel
Allison
Ashley
Ashlyn
Amanda (very pretty, old-fashioned, no one uses it these days)
Ariana
