Strong/Nature boys names

Anyone have suggestions for nature names for boys that aren't hippyish?

I work outside a lot, I want names that are strong, earthy, rustic and natural.

Can be traditional or modern/unusual.

I've always liked Alder for a boy. Possibly not an actual name but who cares 😃

Arvid (old norse, 'eagle' or 'wide forest')
Florian (roman, from Florianus)
Magnus (nordic, 'great one')
Axel (nordic, 'axis; shoulder')
Hadley ('heather meadow', I think)
Timo ('thyme' in Spanish)
