A close friend is looking for a strong traditional boys name that is not too popular. So far she is drawing a blank.
Names that are out are:
George
Patrick
William
Luke
All which are already in the family.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Whereas Laurence is very feminine to my ears, as is Florence.

Quentin
Adrian
Nathan
Names ending in a hard consonant seem to sound masculine to me...

Andrew means strong

Charles is the most strong and traditional name I can think of.
