NNs for William?

DC1 due in 7 weeks....DH has fallen in love with William for a boy. I quite like it, but think its a bit grown up sounding for a baby/toddler so would like a nn option. Only I really don't like Billy - are there any others you can think of as I'm drawing a blank!

TIA Smile

Thanks ragwort! Grin

lotsa I like Will but it suits an older child/teen in my eyes. Maybe I'm over thinking this...! (Ps are you still lurking on the sept board?)
