As a teacher in high school, I can tell you candidly that the world probably has enough:
Tylers
Justins
Jordans
Christophers
and Adams!
No offence meant to anyone with above-mentioned monikers.

I like the names Max and Jack.
If my daughter had been a boy, she would have been Aidan Chance (I'm very glad it was a girl!!).

Here's what my wife and I did when picking a name for our daughter: we went to the Social Security Administration website and printed off the list of the 1000 most popular names. She went through and highlghted all the names she liked in yellow. Then I took the list and did the same thing with a blue highlighter. Any names that were in green (yellow and blue make green, get it?

) were open for discussion and then we started narrowing down from there. (We finally settled on Avery.)
Here's the website (it hasn't been updated for 2006 yet--still has the most popular from 2005).

And in case you're curious, boy name #1 is Jacob. #1000 is Blaise (just after Jaheim and Tye).

My favorite names are: Carson, Greyson, Owen, Bailey, Emerson, or Hadley.
I have a friend named Jackson...he gets tagged with "Action Jackson" alot. Do you have any interesting "old" family names.
AND CONGRATULATIONS!!!
