... Aidan and Barnabas. DS 4 is due in October. We had three boys' names that we agreed on. We have used them all up :)

I currently like:
Benedict
Gabriel
Jacob
Cosmo
Judah
Elias

I like names that are "proper" names and don't sound made up, IYSWIM, but are unusual and won't date. We didn't manage too well there with Aidan Wink

All suggestions gratefully received.

Rufus. I met a baby one recently, great name.

I like Elias best from your list, and Christian from the other suggestions so far.

How about Jago? It's a Celtic/Cornish form of James.

Dominic, Aidan, Barnabas and
Cosmo
Gabriel
Quentin
Edmund
Tristan
Fergus
All seem to fit your criteria of being 'unusual' and not dateable imo. I'd avoid duplicate letters (e.g. Benedict)

Dominic is our choice for if we have another boy and have at some point or other considered most of your other names.

We already have a son who's name is Cole.

From your list my favourite is Gabriel.

I instantly thought Benedict! But I would avoid 2 'B' names.

When pg with dc4, I for a while wanted to call him Rowan Bede, but that wouldn't have fitted with our other names, but would fit perfectly with your's!
