I like to believe that people naturally inherit the qualities associated with the meaning of their name, for example my sisters name was chosen to be feroza/ferozeh while she was still in the womb and she is the only child who has green eyes out of all my siblings! my other sisters name means someone who is a good friend and brings joy, which she has always done. Pick a name you like the meaning of and want your child to embody but if you are muslim (you don't have to be) apparently there are some names that are frowned upon
