Thank you! I really like names that can be shorted to a ‘nn’ ending in ie/y Wilfred is a good suggestion and we could use wilfy
Also like Arthur/Artie I just feel like Arthur is so popular at the moment.

If you are trying to avoid a popular name I wouldn’t go with Harry, as nice as the name is, it’s very popular.
