OK-my last attempt to offer a “new” baby name did not go down well, but I’m sure you’ll like this one....

..Ds’s mates are round for band practice- and the new drummer is..Ivo.

There you go. Simple, classic, easy to say and spell. You can thank me later.

Isn't there a stand up comedian named Ivo? Quite post IIRC.

I think it's a great name. One of the twins in "Child of our Time" - the Robert Winston programme was called Ivo. I always felt a bit sorry for the other twin being called Alex - which is a lovely name but seemed a bit mundane next to Ivo.

Just checked-no, just Ivo. “Old French-my parents are a bit poncy”

Not short for Ivan or Ivor?

Is that his full name?
