Boy Names- Can’t Decide

Hello!
We have recently found out we’re having a little boy, we were dead set on a girls name but have struggled to decide on a boys name.
What is your favourite out of these, or any similar names that you think we’d like?
Our list so far is:
Rory
Tobias (Toby)
Reuben
Otis
Vincent (Vinnie)
Arthur

DH also really likes Dexter but I don’t think I’m that keen and I like Miles but DH doesn’t.
Thanks!

Rory and Tobias are great. I'm sick of the sound of Reuben. Otis and Vinnie to my ears sound actually unpleasant, although others on here seem to like them. Otis makes me think of ears and ear infections.

Tobias and Arthur are my favourite.

What about Ezra, Sebastian, Lincoln
