Peter. It's not old fashioned as such but u don't hear it much in my children Altho I have a 2 year old Peter.

I also second Nigel and would use it if I had another boy

This has to be a wind up ?

Haven’t they all been used to hell recently, your Archies, Stanleys, Arthurs? If you want proper old fashioned now, you’re probably onto 1930s to mid century names. Alan, Derek, Roddie, John, Richard, Anthony, hat kind of thing.
