Stuck on a boy’s name!

My husband and I are due to have our second child, a baby boy, in 5 weeks and are still SO stuck on a name. We have very different tastes but have agreed on the below 4 (although I feel like I still don’t love any of them 😩):

Ellis
Sebastian
Rudy
Edward but would be known as Ted

What are people’s thoughts? We really need to get a move on 😂😂.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Edward is my favourite of these. Then Sebastian, Ellis, Rudy (in that order).

How about: Elliot, William, Toby, Nathan? I think they have a similar vibe to the ones you've mentioned.

I found boys names so difficult! I like all of those but Sebastian is my favourite.
