Seems I’m in the minority but I like Brooks and think it works well with your other children’s names.
Don't like Dempsey at all and doesn’t work with Darcie.
I’m not a fan of Miles personally but I know a lot of people like it.

Darcie, Spencer and Miles are nice. None of them end in the same sound which was a criteria we had for our own 😁 I just like it.

Darcie, Spencer and:
Beau?
Franklin/Frankie? Cute and cheeky for youngest bro. Franklin is totally the same vibe as Spencer IMO.
Caleb?

Miles, definitely fits best with your other DCs

Dempsey is awful sorry and I like Brooke for a girl but I don’t think Brooks for a boy works

Zackery.

I love Miles. The other two sound American / common to me, sorry.

I prefer classic names so I’m not going to be much help to you!

My favourites at the moment are
Robin
Peregrine (but going by Perry)
Ralph (pronounced Rafe)

I quite like Miles. The other 2 are surnames really.

Miles is the best of those even though I don’t like it. The other 2 are just awful.

I also vote Miles. I think it suits the other names.
