Boy's name needed to go with comedy surname

Hello
Am now 31 weeks pregnant with our second child - a little boy. We chose our first child's name (Grace) really quickly and easily but for some reason can't agree on a name and everyone has an opinion/joke suggestion.
We're not helped by the fact that our surname is "Pickles" (why did I change my name!?). So we do get a lot of suggestions along the lines of Branston, Judge, Wilfred...
My favourite names - Tom and Harry - are no goes, as they are already in use by my husband's family.
Please can anyone come up with any suggestions? Just to point you in the right diection, Husband is fairly northern down to earth and thinks that "Reuben" is a made up name......men....

Reading these with my friends at work - roaring with laughter..
Like Adam but husband was worried about signature being "A Pickles"....I don't see the problem.
Like William but we have a "Grace" and kept thinking of "Will and Grace" which I loved as a programme but felt that we already have the piss taken out of us enough as it is.
Like Joshua - never thought of that one - will present that to him tonight. James is on our list but isn't calling out to me like "Grace" did for our daughter
Peter/Freddie/Marmaduke/Ina........sods....
I like Snowleopard's suggestion of trying to "distract from the pickles" as it represents my attitude to daily married life!
