If I'm not feeling creative I like to find lists of most popular names.
Then I ask Google for a random number and choose the corresponding name from the list. https://www.ssa.gov/oact/babynames/decades/names1950s.html
From the list above, if I get the number 10 then the sim will be called Charles or Donna.
Cute:
F: Skye, Bailey, Corky, Melody, River, Belinda, Lacey, Robin, Harmony, Bijou, Kamala (from an Arabic word meaning "perfect." Also Finnish for "horrible," but you can ignore that.)
M: Diego, Micah, Shoelace, Salem
Cool:
F: Hilda, Gwen, Hope, Lyric, Elena, Yuzu, Ebony, Dementia (not something you'd want to name your kid, but it sounds pretty), Madonna, Inanna, Indira
M: Apollo, Beowulf, Beck, Chase, Django, Heath, Yuya
I like to do a theme for a game save. In my current save any babies born to the heir in my game get Doctor Who themed names.
Rose Piper >;3
Haha. So far I've used Jack, Rose, Donna, and Martha in my current save. Donna is a toddler right now, but when she ages up she'll be the heir and she's going to have four sons: Peter, Matt, David, and Christopher.

i love the name kenneth. it was an automatic name for one of my sims' babies and i decided to keep it. i'm so glad, because it's really grown on the sim!
some other names i have from that family in particular are:
lily - girl
molly - girl
chandler - girl
abbey - girl
frankie - boy
ripley - girl
paris - boy
georgina - girl
ava - girl
finn - boy
obviously you don't have to use the name for the same sex i did - just some ideas!
