I have to agree with EEMom. ;) Anything classic and underused, and not created or purposefully misspelled. Family surnames are also passed down as given names quite a bit more than they might normally be.
So really, I wouldn't hold any expectations for a "high society" name other than to assume it wouldn't be the run-of-the-mill trendy/popular or misspelled/created choices. In other words, you're not quite as likely to find an upper class Jaidynne, Braelyn or Nevaeh (and certainly not Neveah LOL), but the names that are used can really run the gamut.
From underused classic ...
Matilda, Flora, Gwyneth, Eloise, Beatrix, Harvey, Hugh, Milo
To quirky and/or less familiar, but still very real, old options ...
Calliope, Alethea, Hermione, Imogen, Niamh, Dexter, Evander, Errol
For example. ;)

The name Rory for a boy often gives me a Cape Cod/Kennedy like feeling.
