Gabriel.

Heavenly; divine; an Archangel name. I love the sound of it, and have done for 25 years!

We don't have any boys but if we ever do, Gabriel will be his name.

Adam

Dominic

Ben(jamin)

All pretty solid traditional names. Not ones that will raise eyebrows in ten or twenty years. Not seeming to try too hard to be different or will automatically tie them to the decade in which they were born. Would not leap out at me with negative connotations on a job application form!
