John, Max or Alfred?

What do you think? Any other thoughts?

We like fairly traditional names which are easily recognisable. However, nor do I want the name to be too common (ideally not top 10). Our other DC names are outside the top 200.

DH names I have vetoed, Henry, James (they're nice but I basically hear these names a lot and would prefer something a bit more unusual)

My suggestions DH has vetoed = Owen, Joseph, Luke, Nathan

I love max and think john is a bit dull ( sorry) Alfred ( Freddie nn) is sweet but max is a good strong name for child or adult

Thanks i see there is another thread on John! I like names which seem due for a comeback!
