Having twins and we have the girl's name picked but can't think of one for the boy

I am 23+2 with twins; a boy and a girl. We have our baby girl's name picked, she'll be called Poppy. But we cannot agree on a boy's name. His middle name will be Jack regardless, but can't think of a first name. Jack sadly isn't an option for his first name as my nephew is named that.

We liked Oliver but have gone off it.
We have mentioned Freddie briefly but neither of us love it. Same with Teddy.

Any suggestions are welcome 😊

I have a Poppy and a Reuben ( and a Freddie! )

Mmm Poppy suits a baby, toddler, maybe a young adult but I’m thinking nothing older?

Anyway:

Poppy and Ayrton Jack
Poppy and Arlo Jack
Poppy and Reuben Jack

My great grandmother was a Poppy. I think it suited her well and she lived to be 94.

Jack for a middle name works with pretty much every name tbh depending on the surname.
