Boys name suggestions

I am looking for a boys name which most people will have heard of and will know how to pronounce but that isn't too popular. I don't want anything in the top 100.

Some names I like but won't use because of popularity are Henry, Sebastian, Thomas, Joseph.

Am I asking for too much? Any suggestions?

My youngest is Barney (Barnaby) Every knows it, knows how to spell it and he's the only one in his school.

And only one person has ever mentioned the purple dinosaur!

I also have a Caleb & Reuben, but I think both those are in the top 100 now, although they are also the only ones in school.

I like Barnaby but DP has already vetoed it.

I'm going to suggest Elias and maybe Asher. They are exactly the type of thing I'm looking for. Thanks
