'Mediterranean' boys names to go with Esteban

Really struggling to find a good boys name which sounds well with Esteban (DS1)His middle name is Rafaël.
It must be easy to pronounce in both English and French-and possibly reflect DP's Spanish/Italian origins.

I have found:

Elias
Félix
Alvaro
Gabriel (either French or English pronunciation-I love both)
Maël

but DP totally not convinced by any of them so any inspiration would be much appreciated!

I was going to say Raphael - I love it, and I know a Raphaella which is pretty glamorous...so I'm no help!

I love Tiago but my best friend is having a Iago!! Diego is also out, but I still love it!

Like Ignacio, and Joaquim-but there is already a Joaquim in the family who turned out badly...

Thanks for all your replies-keep them coming!
