Need some middle name assistance

We are expecting baby 3 and I usually like having names by the end of the first trimester. I realize it's a bit atypical, but it's just a way to cope with the anxiety of early pregnancy. 

So, I'm going a bit name nuts.

One of our boy names is a very distinctive family name, so I can't really share it. We are really wanting to use names with Scottish roots or strong Scottish associations. I have no idea for any middle names. 

Our top boys' names are:
- Kirk
- Ewan
- Keir (husband isn't big on it)
- Cailean (or this)
- Rory (because the real spelling, Ruaidhrí would just be a pain in the arse for any kid)
- William (maybe)

Our top girl name is Maisie but, again, no idea for a middle name. I love Caoimhe and Saorsa but I know no one here will be able to pronounce or spell them.

Some help with middle names or other girl names would be appreciated. Last name starts with a D, two syllables. 

Appreciate any assistance, thanks!

    I think Ewan Kirk has a nice flow to it.

    I like Rory and Ewan best.

    Keir or William would make nice middle names.

    I like Ewan best. I think Ewan Rory or Ewan Kirk sound great. 

    For girls, what about Maisie Adair? Maisie Fiona?

    Ewan Kirk has a ring to it for sure. 

    Maisie Fiona is adorable. Very feminine. Isn't Adair a male name though?

    Hmm you may be right on Adair. Pretty sure I've heard it on a girl, but that doesn't mean much in this day and age

    ETA: just looked it up. Definitely masculine, a variant of Edgar. Scratch that off the list.

    I should point out I speak some Scots Gaelic so I have a bit of a 'feel' for the names because of that hah.

    Haha, Rory William isn't possible. We are big Dictor Who fans and there is a character called Rory Williams and we must wouldn't do that to the poor kid haha. 

    I love Ciaran personally but my husband does not. Donovan is now on the list.
