Malachi was my initial for Ds1, Ezekiel would be the name I chose if I split from DH because I ADORE it and he hates it hahaha

Artemis nn Arty is cute, but would he be branded farty?
Fan of Cosima (and Black Orphans)
Ophelia is lovely

Xavier and Octavia rhyme in my accent so I’m afraid I agree with your DH.

Francesca?

You could use Ned for Benedict ?
I don’t think Oxtavia is a name & Octavia & Xavier are different enough ?
If you like that then what about Odette?

I ADORE Oxtavia but DH thinks its too similar.

Xavier and Oxtavia

Ottilie is cute
Love Florence but DH has a massive veto on it
I like Benedict but not Ben, which I fear it'd fet shortened to
