My DD is Reese Madeline. It's still too early to know what we are having but it was extremely difficult picking her name so I want to start early. I thought I liked Ellis Irene for a girl but I'm unsure. The only name DH has even slightly liked for a girl is Scarlett. I'm stuck on Easton or Knox for a boy. Help!! What names go with Reese? Any suggestions welcome!

Sorry, but Scarlett is a very nice name, Ellis is terrible for a girl.
I dislike Knox (like the gelatin?) Or Easton (baseball).

I don't really like Ellis for a girl, and honestly Ellie names are so on trend right now so it's not even creative.
Suggest
Quinn Brynn Paige Jocelyn Irene as a first name.
I do really like Quinn. Paige is our niece's name - it's a great name. The issue I have with Ellis is I would never want her called Ellie, so that's definitely a consideration.
@3rescuepups I do like Scarlett, just didn't feel like it fit with Reese.

@bbiutmcph I agree. I feel like another semi unisex or not too girly name would pair well with Reese. I really don't want an Ellie. I do love Sloane, that one is on my list but DH isn't a fan.
Thank you for the ideas, ladies!

I agree another one-syllable, unisex name would work best if you have another girl-- and I'd pick a multi syllable mn that is more traditionally feminine.

As for boys, I'd suggest choosing a solid, traditional boys name. When you go with a unisex name for your girl, you don't want to do the same thing for your boy (too confusing). Go strong & traditional:

I would probably go with another masculine name or at least non frilly. Ellis is very masculine and the potential of Ellie is sooo exhausted
