4th son, need name help!

I'm expecting my 4th boy in a couple of weeks and we're struggling with names. My eldest are Arthur James and Albert Thomas, we also sadly lost our third son during pregnancy last year, his name was Edward George.

I want to avoid another 'A' name but apart from that I'm clueless, I think I'm drawing a blank as I never expected to be so lucky to get pregnant again, so everything has been left until the last minute, name included.

If anyone has a few seconds to make some suggestions, I'd really appreciate it!
