Iā€™m terribly indecisive at the best of times but baby boy names is blowing my mind šŸ™ˆ
The below is the list we have so far. Our surname is a nice/ordinary two syllable name. We want something not toopopular but not completely out there with the option for a nickname.
Grateful for those below which you like(if any!!); I know there will be plenty of awful relatives or dogs with these names but I wonā€™t meet them so please do be kind!!

Gabriel
Tobias (Toby)
Felix
Silus
Dexter
Phineas (Finn)
Rollo
James
Magnus (Gus/Max)
Emmett
Emil
Franklin (Frankie)
Max
Nero
Ace (middle name)
Otis
Colton (Colt)
Emerson (Sonny)
Jude
Luca
Otto (middle name)
Raphael (Raff)
Remy
Reuben (Roo)
Phoenix (middle name)

Lovely names, especially the first few. I'd definitely spell Silas 'as' not 'us'.
I really like Gabriel but I like loads of your names.
Solomon nn Solly is also nice

Whoops dogs!

I have a Reuben, I love the name. I also have an Eben. I had Rufus, Otto, Jago, Auryn and Jespar on my list. I love boys names that can double as hogs names!
