I don't think you should. You are the leader of your group. There is a reason why your the leader, and not them. Your boss sees more potential in you. If you were to give your manager a name and they do not exceed up to the expectations than your boss will look down on you because you help nominate someone who isn't there yet with that certain job.
I'd be honest and tell your manager that you cannot give him a name because you don't see them reaching the goal for a promotion. Tell him/her why you believe they are capable.
Honesty is the best policy. He/she will respect you so much more.

Part of being a manger is knowing the capabilities of your people. You say the other members of your team are not capable of meeting the requirement or standards of the company. I understand your point of view on this. Of the three is there one who with a little mentoring could meet the standards of the company. This person might possibly be the newest member of your team and the only reason he/she doesn't meet the standard is length of time on the job to learn all that is required.
This is the person you recommend to your manger; with the explanation that this person with mentoring can learn what is required to meet the standards necessary to be a good leader. In your view the other two do not meet the standards required and why. Then it is up to the manager to decide to take your recommendation or promote one of the other two.
