A name that goes well with Harvey

So, we are expecting a baby brother for Harvey but can't settle on a name. I really like Harry but I think it's just too similar. What about Henry? Or Freddie?

Henry and Freddie are great names.

How about Louis, Max or Will?

James
Henry and Freddie are great but I'd still pass on Henry as being too close.
Christopher
Tobias
Wilbur

Both Harry and James and Harry and Freddie are great.

What does everyone think of Henry? Too much with a Harvey?

I know a Harvey with db Freddie and another eith db max.

Henry - I wouldnt because I'd avoid same first letters for siblings, particularly same sex siblings.

I don't have a problem with same first letters for siblings but think Harry is too similar.

I have a Will and a Harvey

I know a Harvey whose brother is Oscar.

You cannot have Harvey and Harry/Henry imo. Way too similar imo.

How about Brian?

Thanks everyone, I quite like Oscar or Louis. Maybe I could use Henry as a middle name.... I can see this baby will also be without a name for some time.

I know a Harvey and Dominic, which I think is a lovely combination.

I also know an Oscar and Harvey - they're twins.
