Names beginning with or containing a hard 'c' sound

Because of our surname, we think a name with a hard C sound would be best...
So names like Connor (but I don't really like Connor) or Malachi (also not sure if I love it)
I like biblical names (Caleb) and traditional names.
Please help! We're running out of time and I haven't loved a single boys name!
(Also open to suggestions of names that dont have a hard C sound)...

I love Cohen but obviously cant use it because of the Jewish religious associations. Also reluctant to use any variation of it because of the same reason.
There are some great names here though, thank you all for your suggestions!

I'm definitely prepared to be educated here but what is the difference using Cohen without being Jewish when lots of people use biblical names without being Christian etc?
Ciar or Keir
Ciaran or Kieran
Craig
Michael
Mark/Marcus
Kerry
Frank

Also not sure why non Jewish people can’t use Jewish names. People routinely use Isaac, Reuben, Benjamin, Rebekah, Rachel etc etc without an issue.

Because calling a child Cohen isn’t like using a biblical name. It’s more like calling a child Priest or Imam.

I heard of a little boy called Cullen the other day which I loved.
