We're pretty much set for a girl name (Natalie Ruth) but that hasn't stopped me from looking at others just in case something really strikes me. Boy names we've kind of hit a stand-still because we have very different styles.
What names have you had to cross off your lists?
Girls:
Mercedes, Esme, Emmanuelle, Imogene, Jordan, Caroline, Fiona
Boys:
Dresden, Bodhi, Dominick, River (My top choice is Lennon which DH says he hates but I think if I keep suggesting names I know he'll hate even more he might relent - he got to chose DD's first name and BOTH middle names for a boy. I'm thinking he needs to compromise more)

Oh Booo!
Louis pronounce Lou-ee or Lewis? Aurora is so pretty!
Either way, I like Louis.
We live in Rhode Island and I'm a Boston Red Sox fan. All he can think of is Sweet Caroline and he is so sick of that song at the end of baseball season (I force him to watch with me lol)
Yeah. After he said that, it made a lot of sense to me, too. We decided against Dominick because of that stupid Dominick the Donkey song, fearing our son would come home from school crying that kids were hee-haw, hee-hawing at him all day. So I agreed it was best not to go with Caroline so she wouldn't have to hear so good! so good! so good! bah bah bah all day.

Our styles are pretty similar and H is pretty easy-going, but we'll see if that changes once a baby is actually on the way.

He also made me eliminate Aoife because he didn't know the pronunciation. He is more Irish than I even am.....
And boys... Don't even get me started. Still don't have even one name we both like. Completely different tastes.
I am with your DH on vetoing Dresden (that city was decimated by the Allies in WWII and is a symbol of both war's destruction of culture and cold war eastern Europe) and River...
DH vetoed Eugene (my dad's middle name and I think "Gene" is a super cute nickname) and Louis (Loo-eee). Of his, I vetoed Roger and Serge, mainly because of personal associations I have with the names.
We never discussed girl names seriously because we didn't discuss until after our anatomy scan. But I vetoed Bronwyn, which is favorite.
I was the main veto-er. I vetoed just about everything. I have no idea how we eventually were able to name two children.
Natalie is the only name in contention. I love Lennon.
MH vetoed Harper for a girl. I know it's a name that is not well-liked on this board, but I think it's nice.
He also pretty much vetoed every single boy name I like: Cameron, Max, Xavier, Mateo... We are in serious trouble if we ever have a boy.

I love Bronwyn
We have pretty similar taste in boy names so it hasn't been an issue.
He will never suggest girl names he likes. Whenever I ask he says in a horrible southern accent Tallulah Jasmine.
Girl:
Gwendolyn (my absolute favorite, kills me he says no)
Isla
Emmeline
Boy: only one...
Leo (my late grandfather's name that I love)
