Oliver, Ethan Eric Alfie and Niall are ok but a bit dull.
Rhett sounds like retch.
I don't like Levi at all if I'm honest after watching manhunter it just makes me think Bellfield.
I'm not keen on Macauley I just think of a messed up child actor

Frazer is nice but I prefer Fraser as the spelling.
I like Stanley and wyatt but westley and Ellis are definitely my favourites.

Oliver - nice and classic but maybe over popular
Ethan - as above

Frazer - Bit harsh and looks like you can’t soell Fraser. More of a surname

Niall - too old fashioned and sounds like Night all in a cockney accent Shock

Westley - sounds like a place, a strong no from me!

Stanley - old fashioned but making a come back, not for me and will be nn Stan. Sounds about 80!

Alfie - too popular which has ruined the name. Prefer Archie.

Ellis - I like this as it’s uncommon but not too out there, also Elliott is nice

Macaulay - no, will always be Culkin!

Wyatt - a bit of an ugly name Why at...
Rhett - too retchy!

Eric - it’s ok but a bit middle aged sounding

Levi - biblical or jeans, either way, don’t like it!

For me Ellis or even an Elliott!

Are you UK based? That will make a difference.

Oliver - fine
Ethan - OK, but isn't it dated? I know a few born in the late 1990s.
Frazer - Spelled Fraser with an S. This is my favourite.
Niall - fine
Westley - no.
Stanley - OK
Alfie - twee. OK if short for Alfred or something.
Ellis - OK. But I only know female Ellises.
Macaulay - Home Alone
Wyatt - no. Wyatt Earp?
Rhett - No.. Gone With The wind?
Eric - yes
Levi - not keen.
