Okay, so my weird little brother has ome up with six names that he wants to name his future children. They're kinda cool names, but I don't know if he'll ever find a girl to agree to them. XD But he only has middle names for three of them. So the names he's come up with are:

Boys
Lucien Aloysius Rives (prn Reeves. It's a family name)
Ambrose Sebastian
Atticus _________

Girls
Euphemia Chrysanthemum
Cassiopeia ___________
Lucretia____________


As you can see, he has a rather, um, eclectic taste in names. XD
So anyways, he wants another "epic" name for Atticus. Basically something that fits with the other two names.
For the girls, he'd like something plant-related, but that's not a requirement. Again, just something that fits with the other names.

:) I only see Roman and Greek names, not really eclectic :)

His boys names are more Roman, and girls are more Greek.

I like his girls name, especially Cassiopeia, but I would never use them, way to 'unique' or weird, or maybe just not simple enough for my taste?
What about Calliope, Persephone, Althea, ...? They are somehow accepted, I would say. And there are a lot of Greek names that are accepted, like Miranda and Cassandra!

Different with his boys names! I like the name Lucien, but not really Aloysius. Rives would be enough! Lucien Rives sounds nice, not too weird, but unique and simple! Not a fan of the other two first names.
'Epic' names, mmh, have to think about that. Cicero would be one, but wouldn't use it either.
Marcus would be cute, not to weird, but not very common either.
Julius is another one that isn't that weird.
Marcellus, Gaius, Constantine, ... I think I can come up with more names.

I love Roman names for boys and Greek names for girls, just my style, but they should be simple, since they are very strong names, and because of that, they shouldn't be too weird. And some of them are really weird.

How about...

Boys
Lucien Aloysius Rives (prn Reeves. It's a family name)
Ambrose Sebastian
Atticus Rouen (prn ROO ahn)

Girls
Euphemia Chrysanthemum
Cassiopeia Lysistrata & Lucretia Clytemnestra would make great twins :)

Thanks for all the feedback! My brother decided that he wants to use either Maximilian or Nathaniel as a middle name for Atticus, but I'll have to throw Rouen at him too!

Calliope and Persephone would be awesome girl middle names. I'll have to see what he thinks...

Anyways, here's what he's got so far (bold is definite middle names, italics are possibilites.)

Lucien Aloysius Rives
Ambrose Sebastian
Atticus Nathaniel or Maximilian or Rouen


Euphemia Chrysanthemum
Cassiopeia Persephone
Lucretia Calliope
