As JayMatt suggested asking a sheilos chochom before naming a child is a great idea.
I bought the sefer today and it bring the Mabi”t that holds not to name names from before Avrohom Avinu. (The Ramban and many others argue on this.) Others that say Adam is not a good name. He brings a few names that are mesugal for good things for the child.
He brings from the Chazon Ish that naming after a deceased is good for the deceased but naming from the parshah is good for the child.
This like many aspects of Judaism has its twists and turns and obviously we all want only the very best for our children.
