I don’t like Barnabas, Ernest, Hermes or Augustine

Scrappy = crappy

Most are pretty inoffensive, solid names. I like Alexander (but it is pretty popular).

Hermes - I wouldn't inflict this. Most people with associate with a scrappy delivery company, or silk scarves, no matter the classical origins. Pronunciation also likely to be an issue. Also just doesn't sound very nice.

Augustine is pretty grand. Hard to picture a child/normal adult rather than a corpulent emperor in a toga. But it would depend what circles you move in.

I'll tell you which ones I personally don't like:
Hermes - too much
Augustine - too saintly
Ernest - seriously ugly
Barnabas - religious

And the ones I like best:
Jonathan
Alexander
Christopher
Edward

The rest are OK too, all good classic names.
