31 weeks with a little boy and have a list I need to shorten. DH is a bit "meh" about all names except one but is failing to suggest any. Please help me narrow this list down. Surname likely to be Max (though Im also being influenced by pregnancy hormones and the fact this is the last dc and want to use Fox). Surname is very similar to Cavendish.

Oscar
Rory
Sonny
Travis
Finn
Aidan
Lawrence
Sid
Otis

My favourites from your list are Rory, Finn and Aidan. Oscar, Otis and Lawrence are also nice but I'm not too fond of the others. Sonny and Sid sound too much like nicknames for my taste and we had a pet called Travis when I was younger so I associate that name with 4-legged, furry things!

My husband is also useless at suggesting potential names, happy enough to veto all my suggestions but is yet to come up with a single of his own

I think the one syllable first names don't sound great with a one syllable middle name. E.g. Finn Max/Fox, so I would balance it out by one of the two names being longer.

Oscar is now a top 10 name so seems a bit more popular than most of your other choices. (Finn popular too)

Rory is probably my favourite.

I like Sonny the most.
