Me and DH are in agreement that we don’t love any boy’s names. That’s as far as we’ve got really. The only ones we think we could use are below. Any thoughts on these or offerings for similar? Jude, Rudi, Cole and Miles ruled out by DH.

Otis
Marcus
Edwin
Remy
Eli/Elliot

Elliott is gorgeous. However it’s one of those names that doesn’t lend itself to many nick names. I think Eli which I assume will be pronounced Ellie is too much of a teasing risk for a boy. If you are going to use it I think it needs to be the full name
Otis is nice.
It’s a pity you can’t get your DH on board with Jude.

I don’t like Edwin or Marcus.
Remy. Isn’t that something you take for heart burn.

Other suggestions.
Max
Arlo.
Finn
Toby
Hunter
Dexter
Rex
Wilbur
Jayden
Alex
Seth
Milo
Kian
Clark

Elliot is my favourite from your list

Otis and Eli are 2 of my favourite names ever

Marcus is a nice uncommon classic.
Elliot (although a bit surnamey) has a nice sound.
Edwin is fine, although I prefer Edward personally.
Eli, I only like as a nn for Elias.
I don't like Otis or Remy, they sound too trendy for me, sorry.

Orson
