Could we also have a beautiful boys' names thread?

I'm loving the beautiful girls' names thread. My DD's names have both come up several times so I guess I maybe like names that could be described as 'beautiful,' but I'm having a boy this time! Not sure if 'beautiful' is quite the right word, but, for example, I love the names Raphael, Rafferty, Caspian, Sebastian etc.

What are your favourite 'beautiful' boys' names?

Jude is on the list, too! And Xavier was but we weren't sure if it would 'work' in England.

flumpybear I know a lovely boy with your son's name, very positive associations to me ☺

I love Ptolemy although I understand it means 'warlike' which isn't a beautiful meaning.
