Voted.
How about Michael Elliot?
Or Elliot Michael?
I just so those names a lot. Good luck. If it's a boy we are having a JR! I have my appt on Friday we'll see if they can hint at the sex of our baby. Such exciting times!!!

boy names are REALLY hard. we just want to go with something a little different.. nothing in the top 100. elliot is a family name, as is michael - hence the reasoning for the middle names. it's interesting to see what people like/hate!
it is sooo exciting once you know the sex and you can start really thinking about things and zero in on decisions.. thanks for your help everyone!
I voted for Cole Michael... because Cole K*** sounds awesome together, imo. You picked many cute names though, and I like that they are uncommon but not weird, lol :P
Boy names are our bane as well, partially because so may are "taken" in my family - I have 3 brothers, 1 BIL, and 6 nephews (it gets worse if you think about cousins, who are ALL boys).
Yeah, yeah, I know no name is really taken, blah blah, but I'd rather avoid the confusion with immediate family and having two Michaels or whatever.
haha, thanks everyone for the feedback. i know.. cole is a family name but it does kinda sound like cold cuts. or cool cats. our last name is making it hard!!
awwww! i voted for kellan...that's my brother's name (except we spell it kellEn) and i've always loved it. great names! boy names are the hardest ever....

Re: we're struggling with names..
Boy names are so hard, huh? That's what DH and I have struggled with as well.
My vote is for Preston Michael!

another vote for Preston Michael. It sounds really good w/ the last name.

Anyway, I like Keefer. Good German name.
