Italian boy names

I’m pregnant again! Yay!
I’m too early in pregnancy to know if I’ll be having a boy or a girl but I have girl names covered.

I already have a son, his name is Alessio. I want to keep the Italian theme going (I’m from Sicily originally & my husband is from Venezuela— Italian names translate well into Spanish & English) but I’m having a hard time finding other Italian boy names I like.

Any suggestions welcome

I teach an Italian boy called Gabe. His full name is Gabriele - English spelling Gabriel. He's proud of his Italian heritage.
