What names would you pair with Brighton?

in Baby Names
We love unique names. NOTHING common or traditional.
We are having a hard time coming up with names we LOVE for both boy and girl that go with Brighton.
So throw out ANYTHING you think might go nicely 
Also, I in no way want opinions on the name Brighton. We love it and clearly chose to use it, so please feel free to leave your comments about "NMS" out. 
Married on 3.20.2004. It took 30 month, 2 failed adoptions and IVF for our first miracle. We have had 9 foster kids since he was born and started the domestic adoption process when he was 10 month old, we had 4 failed matches in that time. After our daughter was born we brought her home and spent 2 weeks fearing we might lose her because of complications that came up. But Praise God all went through and she is ours forever! Expecting again after IVF

Umm...is there something you haven't blogged about???
ETA: FWIW, anyone who "knows" you and knows your journey and has followed you blog for as long as I have...3+ years...they would know that Brighton fits your adorable little boy perfectly.
I'll have to think on the names.
How about Margaret "Maggie" and Grace "Gracie"... oh wait... haha.. sorry had a "Nanny" flashback.
I know you said you didn't want opinions but I don't think you'll mind mine... I like the name Brighton.
For real suggestions:
Josephine, Alastair, Armond ,Darrell, Ellenor, Idony, Langdon, Margot, Prescot, Stiles, Niles, Terrence, WIlhemina

Hey May! I happen to love Brighton and I know for a fact it fits that little guy to a T!
I like Greek names, like Penelope, Calliope, Antigone, Persephone, etc.
I was heavily into Jeanette Oke books as a teenager, and one of my favorites was A Woman Named Damaris. That name is from the bible and I chose it as my Spanish name in HS, and it has always stuck with me. I also like just plain Maris (I have met 2 girls named Maris in my whole life).
I don't really have any unusual boy names that I like enough to mention, we are using Elias or Elliot for this one, neither is too unique.
WHAT?!?!? Youre kidding right?
Not sure about Salinger, but I have met people named Tuesday and Holland, and Magic for Marigold is one of my favorite LM Montgomery books (it is about a little girl named Marigold after the doctor who delivered her). I like all three of them.
