Naming trends for a little boy

We've started talking about names.    Based on the early list - we both heavily favor names with a Hebrew origin.   In fact, everything we actually wrote down is Hebrew.    There were a few Greek & Gaelic names we liked, but had issues with - they were overly popular, already in use by someone around us or used by someone from the past who tainted it.

I still haven't scanned & posted the pictures from the ultrasound.   I'll do it at some point this weekend.

One thing the ultrasound technician told us was that, size wise, the little guy is in the 25th percentile - meaning 75% of babies are bigger than he is, at this point.    This was shocking, since Lily probably still hasn't fallen under the 90th percentile.  The tech told us not to worry, that babies grow in spurts and the doctor would only be concerned if he was under the 10th percentile or doesn't show progress.  

So, it's not a major concern, but it's a different place to be, given our prior experience.
