What about Idris?

or Aurelian or something else?

Have rather unexpectedly found myself probably (cord was a bit in the way) expecting another boy... I was absolutely convinced it was a girl so didn't have a boys name at the ready.

We already have a Corin and a Lucian

And most of the boys names I like sound like the names of my other boys

Idris is a lovely name, and just about well known enough that people will expect a boy not a girl when they hear it.
We have a little Idris the dragon stuffed toy, but also a big fan of the actor (from his Ultraviolet days).

we actually have some Idris socks that we got from a steam railway place for my oldest son (we also have some Jones the steam ones as well) - lucky baby Idris having his own socks

I had not seen Idris Elba i anything before Luther and I think he is amazinf: incredible presence (quite beautiful too as it goes)
