Classic boys names

Any opinions or preferences on the following boys names? Do you know many little boys with these names?

We like traditional names with a religious link. We've had to rule out quite a few already as friends have beat us to them, so we've narrowed our list down to the following..

Christopher
Jonathan or
James (although this is also the name of DH's cousin so wondering if too close to use?)

Think we're agreed on Andrew for a middle name...

I like the name James and used it as a middle name. I wouldn't use it as a first name, over Christopher or Jonathan, though. This is due to its popularity.

Christopher and Jonathan are both great in my opinion. Think I slightly favour Jonathan though. Andrew is lovely, really lovely. It's a great choice of middle name.

I think its safe to still use james.

I love Christopher.
James is fab. Yes its popular but it's also not faddy.
Not a fan of Johnathan, sorry
Andrew is gorgeous as a MN. Although would you not consider it as a first name.
Other suggestions.
Thomas. Alexander. Peter. William.
