Uncommon name for a special girl:)

Ok so now that we know that we are having a girl, DH and I have been trying to think of names, not much luck:( I want to name her ASAP so when im talking to her(belly) or about her I can call her by name, I hate waiting untill the last minute to deside. Well we have made a list of a few names that we think are ok, but nothing is really jumping out at me:( DH also wants her to have my middle name (Marie) which I hate because its so common. We are looking for somethink uncommon and unique. But not too hard to say.
A few names we have thought of are Keira and Peyton. I also like Samantha and Aubrey, but they just seem to common now days. DH also likes Cassandra, its ok I guess if I call her Cassie.
If anyone has any good uncommon names for me PLEASE post them:) Im going to start a list at home for DH to look at so we can name her soon. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated:)
Thanks,
*Tabitha*

My daughter is called Janaya and i get so many comments on that because its so different. And her middle name is also Marie after mine.
I also like Leah. I'm sure sure what i'm having and haven't even really thought of alot of names yet.I like Michala for a girl and Lincoln for a boy.

No matter what you name the little one, someone else will share the name somewhere, too! I don't look at popular name lists. I know "Caiden" has become very popular but it is a name that DH and I have had picked out for FIVE years and has very significant, special meaning to us. So I say screw the name lists and we're naming our boy (if we have a boy) what we want!

So I encourage you to find a name that just speaks to you and means something to you.

Keira is very beautiful! I also LOVE Aubrey. I also like:

Laurel
Sage


Give yourselves time! This is your last baby and only girl. *HUGS-n-KISSES*

I love the name Leah and Fiona. Hubby and I had two girl names picked out (but now he is rethinking them again!) lol. They are Kara and Moriah. I like to spell Kara with a K because it's different. I like to watch threads like this so I can get more ideas! lol. Hubby likes a name one minute, then changes it the next. We have no clue on boys names yet.....Gotta love him though! ;)

My sons name is Caiden and like Joy...we had our boys name picked out before we even got engaged! (which was 6 years ago) So when I was pregnant I noticed how popular it got but I was like ahh whatever, we had it picked out SO long ago and we loved it! And were super picky with names! So I agree-whatever you love, go for it! You can make any name unique too with different spellings and pronunciation :)
I love the following girls names:

Avren
Noelle
Kierra
Caylee

Good Luck!!

I thought of some more-

Ariyana
Aviana

These are two little girls I know via the "blog world" because their mommies blog about them. Hayden is a cool name! Reminds me of that actress from Heroes (I like her). It's not a very popular girl name at all.

I also like the Tajha name someone else put on the list! That sounds SO beautiful!!!

Sorry if there are repeats-I didn't have time to read thru the list, but I love my dd's name, and it is sort of uncommon. (Jordana) I get compliments on her name all the time! Also another name I kinda like for a girl is Tegan (pronounced TEE-GAN), I think it cute and you don't hear it often....
