Your favourite boys names that don't end in S.

Need some inspiration for a long list!

Generally we prefer names to be fairly easy/logical to spell, but not names that are heavily associated with a particular generation (So definately not Alfie, Michael, Joshua, Jack)

(resists the urge to tell all those wanting to give boys names like Cole, Cooper, and Fletcher that the poor things will spend their lives explaining which is their first name and which is their surname - giving a surname as a given name is as irritating as giving them an odd spelling of a traditional name)

I also like traditional names so:
Mark
Luke
Jacob/Jake
Zachary
Oscar

Cooper was also on my list when pg with DS.
