If I had a boy, I would name him Harry, not after Harry Potter, but after Harry Hart, (if my avatar didn't make that sort of obvious) or Miles, after Miles Edgeworth. Or y'know just have him named Harry Miles (insert surname)
If I had a girl, I would want to name her Mia or Lucia. I don't know what I would give as her first name and her middle name.
However, I am not a particularly maternal creature, so children are not in my immediate future at least.

Reminds me of a time back i n Highschool, I was skipping class at the local library and reading a book on names for baby girls...
Dorcas. Dorcas is a name for girls apparently. And that is marvelous.
In seriousness though, There is a name I want to bring back, Wolfgang. Seriously, there is not enough people named Wolfgang. My son will be named Wolfgang.

If I had my way, I would name my future son and daughter Castiel Marvin and Anna Naomi, respectfully, references to characters of my favorite show Supernatural.
Oh Colour, you're so nosy! 
I've always liked the names Penelope, Victoria, Hannah, and Jasmine, so if I have a girl I'd give her one of those names. Possibly two of them if I give her a middle name.
For a boy I was thinking Alexander, Julius, Marcus, or Bob.

Girls: Sarah, Catherine, Leah, Hannah
Boys: Michael, Aidan, Nathan, Alan
I could never name a kid after a fictional character. No Tyrion or Daenerys in this house. I'd name a dog that way, but never a person.
I dislike gender neutral names: Leslie, Riley, etc.

I am of the mindset that children are not your vanity plates, they are your responsibility. If I were to choose a name based on an interest, it would be something pretty standard, such as Sophie from Howl's Movng Castle, Sarah Jane or Amelia from Doctor Who, that sort of thing. Otherwise normal names whic happen to be shared by awesome characters in some fictional story--and spelled in a normal way.
I'm not planning to have biological children, so I'm guessing I'll likely adopt kids likely already with names if ever I get around to taking care of another human being (let alone myself), but I guess I can play. I've made entire lists of first names to use for RPGs after all. I unfortunately don't have that list with me and will instead just go with first names that go well with my last name.
Girl Names: Catherine, Martina, Emily, Andrea, Chelsea, Abigail, Katrina, Susan/Susanna, Ellen, Margaret
Boy Names: Silver, Bastion, Douglass, Arthur, Frederick, Malcolm, Martin, Samuel, Bradley, Oliver
Either/Both/Other: Cecil, Aubrey

If it's a boy i'm definately naming it Thor. ( yes i said "it" i don't consider children people)
If it's a girl i'm naming it Storm. ( yes i know that's not her real name)
That being said i don't want or like kids so this is purely hypothetical.

Yeah, some "good" stuff there. OTOH, some of it is just foreign names that sound strange to people.
My favourite is "Emily", spelt "MLE", though that could refer to the Magazine, Lee Enfield rifle, which was called the MLE/Emily.

The amount of rage that name caused was stupid. Not backing down from that position XDColour Scientist said:

OT: Every time I find a name that I like, I almost always end up moving away from it later. My stock go to names for Boys are Ronan, Aeneas, Marcus, Claudius, Achilles, Menelaus, Ajax, John (although the commonness of it makes me cringe), Mark, Luke, Noah, Ulysses, and Aidan. I'll let you decide which ones I like for middle names and which for first names. Choose carefully, because it will determine whether you think I'm insane or just creative.
For girls I like Kiera, Mialla, Julia, Tali (not related to the game), Talia, Camille (the French pronunciation), Camilla (the latin pronunciation), and Rachael.
Also, Funny story about the name charlotte. My Grandmother is the least grandmotherly person you could imagine. She kind of petty and gets all pissy and complains a lot. Most of my family just avoids her or ignores it to avoid conflict over dumb things, but she can be pretty bitchy. When I was little and didn't know any better, She was in a huff and I was an exasperated 3 year old being annoyed by her, so I pretty bluntly and with annoyance in my voice was just like "Sit down Charlotte!"
Her name is Shirley actually which makes it funnier. I couldn't remember it. XD
I'll be promoting old Norse names.
My generation(I'm from Sweden btw) has broke a lot from the currently regular names, but the result is "original" and ugly names.
I think it would be better to go back to our roots. Around 100 years ago they attempted it, so most of our grandparents have Norse names(my grandfather was named Yngve and my grandmother Gun, for example) but it didn't carry on to the next generation.
I assume this is an ongoing issue where every generation tries to be different from the previous one...
The biggest problem is that most old Norse names that aren't around today look fucking weird, so I'll probably go for the middle-ground and give them rare, but still normal, names like Torbjörn or Freja. I've said this before in simular threads, but you can't go wrong naming your kid Thor + Bear.
