Maybe give us an idea of the type of name you are after? Or examples of names you can't agree on or that are on your list.
I have to admit I am a pretty traditional girl when it comes to names but happy to put my thinking cap on!

Names I like on the less common end of the spectrum are:
Nora(h), Vera, Brenna(h), Aurelia, Coralie, Eloise, Tamsin, and I second Cadence 
Sorry those aren't modern at all

Before meeting her people will probably assume she is a boy. But I like it, it's a beautiful strong name for a girl.

I really like Claudia and Greta, tho hubby wasn't too keen on them for our girl so we went with Madeleine.
I have the same problem with my name and people thinking I was a guy. Spelt Mieke but pronounced Meeka, you just get used to it

I like Dillon for a girl its a good girls name.
We're sussed for boys names, girls is proving challenging.
We've already used our favourite girls name for our first born.

Dylan was on our list for a girl too! Love it (love your spelling better, will add that to our list for number 3), i like boys names for girls so we also had Spencer, Mackenzie, Cameron and Elliot.
People often say to us 'but Quinns a boys name...' i think now most names can be unizex.
We have no problem picking girls names but if we ever have a boy we'll be in trouble.
Good luck finding something you both agree on

We've got Greta and Alyssa, and two of our daughters have "boys" names- Tait and Eliot. We've almost used Sheridan, Edison, Ivy, Dillon, Mackenzie, Madeline, Meredith, lots of others I can't think of right now! I like to use names that are uncommon but not "weird", so I look in uncommon places, eg in a scottish surnames book, a paint colour chart, plant lists, the "names popular 100years ago" on baby name websites. I hope that helps!
