Need a boys name!

After several miscarriages and 3rd go of IVF, we are expecting twins. We have a boy and a girl due in 8 weeks!
We’d like to incorporate family names as we’ve had a lot of support from our family after so many difficult times.

We’ve chosen the girl’s name: Clara Florence
(After my Aunt Clare and my mother in law’s middle name is Florence).

We are struggling for a boy’s name.
We thought about Michael (my Dad’s name) Raymond (my Uncle and grandfather’s name) but my DH finds it too old fashioned and hates nn Mike, Mikey & Mick.

My DH Dad’s name isn’t an option (we both agree it’s horrible!)

We’ve been through the baby book but DH vetoes everything I like.

Any suggestions to go with Clara Florence?

Miles is sometimes used as a variant of Michael.
There's also Milo.

Otherwise, any other middle names from family members, or female family names with masculine versions that you could use?

Freddie & Clara
Eddie &Clara
Teddy and Clara
James and Clara.

I used Michael in my son's middle name.
