Boy name deadlock

I'm starting to think this baby boy will never have a name - he is more than a week old already! I would welcome the thoughts of the panel (and will be easily identifiable - hello if you know me! - but never mind).

Heritage (in decreasing order) English/Welsh/Australian/German.

Big sisters are Tilly and Harriet. Surname ends in "oh" sound so Hugo/Milo/Arlo etc don't sound good. Nicknames will be almost inevitable! Middle names could be any of the below or something else.

Options:
Alfred (Fred) - close family member has dog called Alfie
Angus (Gus) - OK if not at all Scottish? Might be my favourite.
Arthur (Artie) - a bit popular at the moment?
Barnaby (Barney)
Benjamin - but not keen on Ben/Benjy so probably out
Hugh - shares initial with sister - I guess not a disaster
Idris - nickname?
Jasper - nickname?
Max
Rory

Thank you....

Tilly and Harriet are very 'english' names to my ear (am not English) so think Alfred and Arthur and Hugh are the most similiar style
(am not a massive fan of Fred - prefer Alf/Alfie though)

Angus is very scottish I'm sure I don't mind Grin but also prefer Fergus .....
