Austin? Rafe?

I am 37 weeks pregnant with DC2, we don't know if boy or girl.

We've chosen a lovely girls name but really struggling with boys names!! The only few names that we both seem to agree on are Austin or Rafe - any comments?? Are these weird? I'd like to avoid the very over-popular names if poss but also do like traditional old fashioned names. BUT our surname is Head so some really don't work (Richard obv, Edward = Ed Head, Arthur = "half a head"....etc...etc... !)

Please help!

I have a rafe. He quickly became a rafey ("Ray-fee") which has stuck and we love...

Really like Austin. Not keen on Rafe
