Name with a strong "O" sound

Looking for opinions on DC3 name and noticed I like names with an 'O' sound in them - DS1 has a dogs name/name of the grouch in Sesame Street
and DS2 - has a birds name/ Batmans sidekick.

If DC3 is a girl, we'll probably be going for Juno but a bit stuck for boys suggestions, thinking possibly Soren but is it a bit similiar to DS2 name?
And if so, have you any more suggestions?

For boys:

Oscar, Robin and Tom (love this combo!)
Oscar, Robin and ...Leo/Leon
Oscar, Robin and Joseph/Joe
Oscar, Robin and Oliver (popular but such a lovely, classic name)
Oscar, Robin and Morgan
Oscar, Robin and Johnny
Oscar, Robin and Milo

I would personally avoid Theo, Noah and Toby are there are loads at the moment and think they will "date" badly.

Have fun choosing!

Love Juno for a girl btw.

OP - do you mean a long 'o' as in Otis or a short one as in Oliver?

Not being a Sesame Street watcher, as am now imagining a DS1 called Fido or Rover!

You could try: Ivo, Mungo, Hugo, Rollo, Milo, Marlowe, Arlo, Theo, Sholto

Or, with the 'o' elsewhere in the name: Auberon, Colin, John, Laurie, Toby, Anton?
