Cillian is lovely! Cillian Downes sounds great and goes well with his siblings' names. Agree that Ivor isn't great. I do like Ivan though.

I love Cillian too, not heard it before

You can't have Ivor Downes, as it sounds too much like eiderdowns! (...Mind you, perhaps most people don't know what they are, now that we all use duvets?)

We know a Cillian and I must admit I can't get over it basically being Kill + Ian. Also, you know it'll obviously get shortened to "Kill" at school, which isn't great.

Downes is a tricky surname to work with, isn't it? Ben would be ridiculous and I thought of Edward, but then realised it'll probably get shortened to Ed Downes (head down), so my suggestions would be: Toby, Henry, Alistair/Alec, Ralph or Angus (nn Gus).
