Thank you all for the great suggestions.

You have me right Calloway, it is exactly the Irish Uncle names I have a pull for.

I have Irish uncles called - Gerard, Martin, Anthony, Michael and Christopher so a few of the classics have gone but it's that genre I like.

Are you Catholic? Some special saints:
Joseph - obviously Jesus’s father but also patron saint of husbands, fathers, jobseekers, moving house - all the things you need a patron saint about!
Jude - patron saint of hope
Anthony - patron saint of lost things
John - the Baptist or the Evangelist
Michael - archangel
Gerard - patron saint of pregnant women!
Nicholas - patron saint of children, Father Christmas 🎄
Thomas - St Thomas More, Tudor martyr
Charles - brave lay preacher in Korea
Andrew - patron saint of Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
Blessings to you Flowers
