My all time favorite name for a girl is Burkleigh but my husband absolutely despises it. My #2 and 3 names he dislikes too they are Bexley (bff said sounds like a dog) and Gretchen. I need some help with other names to present him. He like traditional normal names while I like different names. Any ideas?

It can be difficult to find a compromise when you like two different styles.  Maybe you could find a more traditional name with a unique/interesting nickname? Your favorites Burkleigh / Bexley are a bit masculine sounding, maybe your husband would agree on something that is unique but with a softer more feminine feel?  Or if you like that they are unisex, maybe you could find a more traditional unisex name...  Figure out what it is that makes you like a name, and the same for him as well, and try to find something that would fit both.
