So far this is the only name we can agree on but I don't love it like I love our daughters' names. Boys names are really hard!!

Fwiw I like Jacob, Joshua, Oliver, dh has said no but hasn't offered alternatives.

Popularity doesn't bother me at all.

Can he say what he DISLIKES about your suggestions? Could you tell us your daughters' names (if not too "outting") so we can get an idea of what you both might like?

Thanks all. Most of these we've gone over. Boys names are just not as likeable in my opinion.

So why not Theo then? Don't bother with a middle name.
Btw I really like lots of these boys names.
