I bolded the ones I liked. (I also added the meanings of the names.)
Sidebar: At The Bay, I worked in the Christmas section and customers were looking for Baby's First Christmas ornaments. We didn't have them, but I suggested to customers if they knew what the baby's name meant, they could get an ornament incorporating that, which I think would be a lot more valuable than the standard rattle / teddy bear / bootie ornament. You could also have somone write the baby's name and birth date on the ornament.
