Classic (maybe even boring) names

I like classic names that have a variety of nn possibilities but are themselves pretty usable names, Elizabeth, Katherine, Charlotte, Victoria for girls. Also loved Amelia before everyone else decided it was cute and recently Meredith has been growing on me, Verity is an absolute favorite but has been taken off the list because of the lack of nn. Girls names I like lots of and its just a case of listing them until DH finds one he likes.

DC2 is due shortly and we have no idea what so ever for boy names, any ideas, along the lines of the girls names we like? Thanks

How about Matlida, nn Matty

I love Verity and nicknames don't have to be exactly like the name itself, Margaret/Peggy for example. Meredith is lovely, but not keen on the others
