As a person with the name Jade, I strongly caution you against it for several reasons:
1) There's more boys than you think named Jade.
2) People generally say it Jay, Jake, Jane.... and not Jade, I often have to follow my name with "like the stone" when I introduce myself.
3) Not to mention... People associate the name Jade with a stripper/hooker/some other exotic sexual character, OR the mortal combat character.
As for general names, pick something that's not too normal but not too out there. Save several names for the time of birth. My brother and Sister in Law had several picked out and once their daughter was born they decided based on her personality.
