We found out on Wednesday that we are having a boy and I need some name ideas. We have a dd called Laura and I would like a well known but not very trendy boys name iyswim?

My thoughts so far are

Arthur
Elliott
Simon
Toby
Monty
Peter
Stephen??

but dp isn't struck on any one of them.
Would like a first name and then one middle name.

I like but can't use for family/friend reasons

Michael
James
Edward, could perhaps get away with this
Luke
William

I also really like Rory and Lawrence but they would be ridiculous with a sister called Laura.

Help please .

I am really sorry, the only one I like from your list is Arthur

What about

Matthew
Patrick
Adam
Daniel
Alexander

Alexander?

May use Rory as a middle name but it's just the sound of it "Laura and Rory" is a bit too much of a tongue twister for me to say easily.

I love Toby. The others are ok, not keen on Stephen just because there are are so many Stephens my age (36). I love Rory and Lawrence and don't think they sound ridiculous with Laura.
