Help with boy's name

Really stuck for a boys name. Don't mind James / Jamie but don't love it. Quite like Arthur but have been vetoed. Can't bear Arlo, Otis type names and don't like cutesy old fashioned abbreviations. Or surnames as first names. Or anything that is suggestive of far more interesting heritage than he'll have because it sounds pretentious. And if anyone suggests anytjing like Quentin I will actually cry or assume you're joking. Please please help me!!

That’s a nice shortlist. Have you considered John?

Lots of Johns in family already @daisypond, although I do like it. Thanks everyone else for the other suggestions too. Actually excited about choosing a name now which is massive progress!

We have a James (Jimmy, I don't like Jamie) and if DD was a boy she'd have been Frederick (Freddie)

I know you have your list but how about Marcus? It's one of my favourites.
