38 weeks and still struggling for a boy's name, having known our girls' choice from about 14 weeks... Confused

This is our list, I like them all, but I'm not in love with any of them...
Bruce
Eugene (on bc, but may shorten Gene)
Leonard (Lenny)
Lawrence (Laurie/Lol)
Otis
Patrick (Patch)
Abraham (Bram)
Reginald (Reg)
Francis (Frank)
Peter
Donald (Donnie)

I don't think my criteria are too demanding...

  1. Classic but not too popular (I know it's virtually impossible to tell what will be popular...)

  2. Prefer something with a few nickname options so that DS can shorten as he wishes later.

  3. I'd also hoped to find one that wouldn't indicate a particular class/background, but think I might have to ditch that criteria.

Comments and suggestions welcome - please Smile
