I'm going to throw something out there that bucks conventional wisdom, and give you my reason why. It's not just for the sake of being trite.
I think you two should read over the descriptions at character select, and decide based on what each of you would personally enjoy. There are summaries that say what type of personality each class fits best.
Everquest is a complex game with a lot of depth to the many classes. It's my opinion that you will get more enjoyment out of playing a less than ideal combination that you each enjoy, because you'll get to experience the challenge of making do with what you each have to work with, and finding creative ways to work together, even at a disadvantage. This will serve you better in the long run.
Then it's an adventure to discover what you can do, and push your limits, rather than pigeonhole yourselves into what you should do because you're in A paired with B for pro minmaxing.
I often run into lower level folks in the cities looking for binds or running from one place to another, the folks playing the most awkward class combos as first characters genuinely seem to be having more fun.
