Boy's name to go with Dominic...

... Aidan and Barnabas. DS 4 is due in October. We had three boys' names that we agreed on. We have used them all up :)

I currently like:
Benedict
Gabriel
Jacob
Cosmo
Judah
Elias

I like names that are "proper" names and don't sound made up, IYSWIM, but are unusual and won't date. We didn't manage too well there with Aidan Wink

All suggestions gratefully received.

I love all of those but Benedict is awesome and I also love Gabriel.Felix would fit with those names too as would Sebastian.

I like Cosmo and Elias I like it that all names have a different first letter.

I think you need to find something that goes better with Aidan as the other two names go together and go with all the options you have given - which will make Aidan stand out even more.

What about something like Nathan, James or Dale

I love Sebastian, it's Barnabas' middle name :) Felix is nice but we have cats and it makes me think of cat food!! I like James too and you don't meet to many of those. Hmm.

I think of Aidan as timeless - Northumbrian saints (kings?) & all.

James is great. I like everything from your list except Cosmo (wanky) & Judah (dunno why not).

Or, what about
George
Christian
Edmund
Rupert

I thought Nathaniel, too, or Robin, but Gabriel, Jacob and Benedict fit nicely. Cosmo is great, but could be hard to carry off!
