Ds 4 is a Christopher. A classic and number 1 for me . Also not too popular now . He is my Chris / Chrissy / Ips / Ippy he used to pronounce it Ipperper 😊.

Alexander is second place . Love it .

Third is Theodore and Jonathan .

Then Louis , Edward and Henry.

Not keen on Richard , Albert or Barnabas . ( but do like Berty)
A real no for Hermes Augustine ,Ernest .

I like Louis and Arthur, and Ernie as a nn for Ernest.

Sadly Hermes will just always be the dreadful company that puts my parcels in my wheelie bin.

Other suggestions that might fit your vibe:
Laurence
Caspian
Atticus
Rafferty

Charles- 5/10. I think it’s quite outdated, I don’t think it’s a timeless classic like some other names and I don’t like Charlie.
Albert- 2/10. Just makes me think Prince Albert.
Alexander- 5/10, it’s ok but I’m not keen on Alex.
Edward-10/10, my DS’s name so I’m biased but it’s lovely Grin
Richard- 1/10, severely outdated.
Christopher- 5/10, again I don’t mind it but hate Chris
Louis- 7/10
Barnabas- 4/10, prefer Barnaby
Theodore- 1/10, dislike Theo immensely
Arthur- 7/10, lovely
Ernest- 6/10
Henry- 8/10, definitely a timeless classic
Hermes (like Greek God...)- 0/10, way too try hard and obvs the name of a well known courier...
Augustine- 0/10, again too try hard
Anthony- 1/10 outdated
Jonathan- 1/10 boring
