Brother for Seb

We've recently found out we're expecting another boy. We currently have a Sebastian (Seb), but struggling to find something that we love as much.

I love Theodore (Theo) and Jude (DH hates both)
DH loves Alexander (Alex) or Max. Both are ok but I work in education and have taught a lot of both and have bad associations with both.

Any suggestions. My ideal would be something fairly traditional/ vintage?

I have a Sebastian and our shortlist for DS2 who was born in October was:

Felix
Jasper
Gabriel
William
Finnian

We liked Alexander too but someone else in the family is Alex so decided against it.

I also liked Tobias/Toby but DH didn't.

Thanks all- some really lovely suggestions. Our current front runners are:

Alexander
Benjamin
Rowan

(Middle name likely to be Peter).

I like all of them... (#nothelpful)

Which one goes best with your surname?

They all go nicely- my favourite is Benjamin at the minute (love Benji) but just trying them all out and seeing which fits best!

Alexander and Benjamin are both rather classic and Benjamin is (imo) a ‘warm’/‘kind’ name (=> obviously influenced by the Benjamins I’ve met up to now...)

Rowan is a bit quirkier but still handsome. My personal favourite is probably Rowan but they’re all nice.

Tobias (Toby), Jonah, Caleb.
