3 syllable boys' names

3 syllable names with emphasis on the first syllable (like Christopher or Atticus) go well with our one syllable surname and while we've got a few possibles for a girl, we can't find one we like for a boy. Things like Christopher and Nicholas are great names but I grew up with loads of them and associate them with my peer group. Any ideas?

Momma, the only Nikita's I know are male but they're friends and family members from Russia - we plan to use it because it's my grandfather's name.
It might get used as a girls name in the UK though I'm not sure???

Lizibet there was a show called it where the lead character was a girl but of course your sons peers will never know and as its not used much over here it will definitely be a boys name to them, especially if nn is nick or nicky

Bridget I didn't think it was the same word but I think the pronunciation of Simeon is the same as the word Simian.... You know what kids are like, poor sod would get a hell of a ribbing!

Just been reading a thread on a DD who was landed with a name they hated and legally changed it as soon as she was old enough so a bit concious of that aspect now....

How many kids would know what simian means tho? totally didbt have to google it myself
