Baby already here and can't decide!

Dh and I are REALLY struggling to name our son. We just haven't been able to decide definitively and now baby is already here and we really need to get a move on!

We have narrowed it down (I think) to either Arthur or Evander.

Our surname is Rose so any name we choose needs to fit nicely with that and not be too tricky to say one after the other. Other names we considered were Alexander, Austin and Theodore.

All suggestions/opinions very welcome and much appreciated. Thanks so much in advance x

I like all of your options except I would avoid Austin because of David Austin roses.

I was in the same position! We had 2 names. We spent 2 weeks alternating between the 2 names and settled on one.
One will just seem natural and right hopefully.

Arthur is a safe choice, although I really love Evander. Nn Evan or Evo
