Please help me narrow down my ridiculous list before I present to SO... I don't want to overwhelm him. I'm not exaggerating when I say ridiculous, it's extensive. Big brother is Eli (Elijah Neal). I'm definitely open to suggestions/rearranging.
Boys: Top pick is (currently) Ethan James Everett Samuel Myles Lee Auden Neal Everett Asher Asher Cade Grady James Grady Campbell Everett Reid Everett McKinley Everett Tiberius Lane Tiberius Rawley Samuel Miles Reid Otto (insert middle name here)
Girls: DS would have been McKenna Lucille and I'm not sure whether I'd like to "use" it again, but it's the only name SO has approved so far. Camille Harper is my top pick at this point. Hadley Grace Lainey Grace Athena Noelle Gemma Louise Brynn Elizabeth Tenley Elise Finley Pearl Hazel Camilla Raleigh Harper
I would keep Ethan James, Grady James, Grady Campbell, Miles Reid, Otto ____
I would get rid of:
Everett Samuel (Everett is a city in Washington)
Myles Lee (not sure if Myles is a legit variation of Miles, but even if it is, I would worry that it would be bundled in with the "y" trend)
Auden Neal (I wouldn't give your second son the same middle name as your first)
Everett Asher (same critique as above)
Asher Cade (Cade is too trendy, IMO)
Everett Reid (same)
Everett McKinley (makes me think of mountains: Mt. Everest and Mt. McKinley)
Everett Tiberius (same; also, Tiberius is such an "out there" name, that while good, I think needs to be paired with something very mainstream)
Lane Tiberius (same comment)
Rawley Samuel (never heard of Rawley before; do you mean Raleigh?)
I suggest: Asher Daniel, Brennan Mackenzie, Dwight Benjamin, Levi Asher, Liam Tiberius, Nathan Lee, Nelson Tiberius, Oliver Reid, Raleigh Samuel, Reuben Samuel
Middle name ideas for Otto: Caleb, Levi, Keenan, Shane, Keane, Benjamin
GIRLS
I would keep: Camille Harper, Hadley Grace, Lainey Grace, Athena Noelle, Gemma Louise, Hazel Camilla
I would toss:
McKenna Lucille (Mckenna is so trendy)
Brynn Elizabeth (Brynn is also very trendy)
Tenley Elise (Tenley is also very trendy)
Finley Pearl (Finley is a boy's name)
Raleigh Harper (Raleigh is also a boy's name)
I would add: Elizabeth Lucille, Emma Elizabeth, Harper Elise, Adrienne Pearl, Amelia Harper
FTR, Harper and Hadley are also trendy and male names,but for some reason, they don't bother me as much as the others. I think that they will actually grow with the child as opposed to the others that seem perpetually "teen mom."
Boys: I Love: Everett (Reid is my fav middle name choice) Lane (I dislike Tiberius though)
Fine but maybe a little Boring: Ethan James Miles Lee Miles Reid Asher Cade Otto
Extremely Dislike: Auden Neal Grady James Grady Campbell Rawley Samuel
Girls: I Love: Camille Harper Hazel Camilla Brynn Elizabeth
Extremely Dislike: (I get a cutesy, trendy vibe from all of these names) McKenna Lucille Hadley Grace Lainey Grace Gemma Louise Tenley Elise Finley Pearl Raleigh Harper
Athena Noelle (not cutesy but just too strange for me)

You ladies ROCK! There are some clear front-runners now. Thank you all for your input! This accomplished exactly what I needed it to!
Boy names for girls don't bother us too much, McKenna is technically a boy's name too, but as society misused it, trends changed. We won't be naming any girls Benjamin though, haha. @JMU_Bride09 I meant Rawley, it's a tribute to a friend. @Bringmemylongswordho same letter sibsets aren't for everyone but we like E names. Our dog is Emma!
