Advice on name for my import

I will be importing a border collie puppy from the UK to the US next year. I'm very excited. If all goes well, the litter should be on the ground in January, and I will fly to London to pick my pup up in March. So I'm looking for some ideas on names. I would like him or her to have an english name, being an english dog. I don't know the sex of the pup yet, so ideas for both male and female names welcome. Also, I welcome ideas for KC and call names.

You guys have come up with some great names before, thanks for the help!

If it's registered with the UK KC then usually the breeder will have already given it a name.
I tend to prefer to wait until I see the pup as that gives me inspiration for the name. ALthough having said that both Percy and Liberty's KC names gave me their names, Wilsons name gave him his KC one and Ellie's KC name was influenced by her name.
