Help with boys names please?

We've decided not to find out the sex of our baby, and we're really struggling to come up with boys names. We've thought of several girls names that we love, but boys seem so much harder!

Some of the names I like are Jack, Jacob, Thomas, James, Jamie, possibly Dylan, and Alexander, although I'm not sure whether that sounds a bit long with our surname (2 or 3 syllables depending how you pronounce it!). I'm looking for a name with a similar feel but slightly less popular, I'd prefer them not to have several others in the class with the same name. Any ideas?

Thanks, I really like Tom, Max and Duncan but have close friends/family with those names. Quite like Sean and Ryan, and I think Luke/Lucas is a lovely name but it doesn't sound right with my surname.

I like Jack, James, Thomas and Alexander out of your list.

As you like names beginning with J, how about Jared?
