Help with boy names

Just found out before Christmas that we are having a baby boy. However really struggling with finding a name we both like (never mind love!)... we had a ton of names we liked for girls, but feel so uninspired by boys names.

Here's a short list of names I have come up with so far. It's not the strongest list because I don't love any of them yet. I like less common but not totally 'out there' names. Avoiding all names in the Top 10 if we can help it.

Ryder
Finley
Benjamin
Maxwell
Harvey
Greyson

This baby will be a brother to Amelia (HATE the commonality of this name, but it had sentimental value to us).

Thoughts on the above? Any other name ideas also welcome.

Like Finley and Benjamin and Maximilian rather than Maxwell.

Our latest DC was a DD but our boys names were Theo, Milo, Reuben and Rufus.

I also like Benjamin best.

Benjamin is the only one that isn't hideous.

Sorry I only like Benjamin on your list, the other names sound like surnames to me.
