Boy's name for brother Sebastian

Looking for some suggestions for baby boy names. My eldest is called Sebastian--a name we always loved even before I was pregnant. I like it because Sebastian is traditional but not common; and Seb is cool and trendy. He can use either.
I love Theodore/ Theo for the same reason, but my friend's son who is a similar age to my son is called Theo. So then I thought of just short names. When I've searched on other threads, lots of suggestions have been for longer names like Sebastian, but maybe I'd like a short one to go with Seb. Then I thought of Kit, but my husband went off that one because he works in football. I like Rory but our surname begins with R (can you imagine if he had a lisp lol?) so we settled on Finn but someone we know called her newborn Finn literally this week. I've suggested Arlo, Hugo and Jude but my husband doesn't like any of them. Any other suggestions? TIA

I think that's a brilliant idea momma22. I love the name Ted. You're a genius!
