Can’t decide on a baby name for my 2 week old son HELP

So my baby boy is 2 weeks old today and I still haven’t decided on a name for him. I feel so awful referring to him as “the baby” all the time! 😖

My shortlist is:

Azai - which I love as it means strength and it’s very unique but it just doesn’t really suit him.

Zac - (short for Zachary) which does suit him, but I just don’t love the name and feel like it’s a bit common. I know 3 Zac’s already.
Cruz - also suits him but sounds a bit made up with no real meaning. Again I’m not entirely sold.

I really want a name that is unique/unusual. Something different like Axl, but his brother on his dads side already has this name.

If anyone has any suggestions they’d be greatly appreciated! 😬

I really love the name. Not going to use it either (just found out I'm having a girl!) so you can have it if you want Grin

If you like Zac but not do keen on Zachary how about Izaac or Zac as a shortened version

How about Roan (rhymes with bone) or Rory?

Cruz is a girl's name.
Zac is great but it is very popular and will get spelt Zac, Zack, Zach and Zak. He will be Zac A. or Zac B. or something.

I have commented on another thread that I would choose Asa nn Ace.

Asa is good.

Zac is really overused, sorry! Though nice.

Zevi?
