Any ideas?

I like Maximilian and I also like St Blaise but I'm not sure if I like the name Blaise because in my head it's a "naughty boy" name, but did I just make that up?

Any other suggestions?

Google "Saint day calendar" or click the link, and you can find a whole year's worth, including some really little-used ones.

I wouldn't go with Bede it's the name of a convicted paedo who abused boys for over 30 years in the midlands.
What about Colmcille or Ignatius?
