Boys names when father insists on "Bainbridge" as middle name

DH has a family tradition, first born male every generation gets Bainbridge as middle name.

Problem is what can I put in front of it. DH has suggested Harris as a first name to appease my dad who only had girls. Two downsides: initials HBL (horrible to his friends Hmm) but also would saddle little lump with three surnames and I have visions of a future of bullying ahead of him.

Does anyone have any suggestions for boys names? I would like to build a collection and do an elimination list Grin

So far I like Joseph and Charlie and could maybe live with Harris if I can be persuaded that the poor thing won't get daily beatings at school but that's it... hence our problem.
