Help! We are so stuck for boy’s names

We are expecting our fourth baby and pretty sure it’s a boy. BUT we’ve already used 6 boys names ( 2 boys already each with 3 names) Please help! We have a Francis and Benedict already. We don’t have a single boy’s name left we agree on! We want classic but not boring ( who doesn’t?) Anyone ?!! ....

My DH loved Peregrine and Levison. Would fit nicely with your other names!

Hugh is my favourite but husband hates it ( it’s also middle name for eldest). Lawrence feels a bit wet. Patrick great but we may be in danger of coming across as mega Catholic ! ( no problem but we are not!) thanks for suggestions .

could do Balthazar as a middle name but don’t feel like shouting that one out in the playground! It’s going on my emergency list though!
