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 😊

Oh I was about to say jack would be perfect but then realised that would be the middle name!
Maybe Ben?

@Ellmau, I know that Jack and James have the same meaning, but Jack was traditionally a nn for John not James.

I know, but James Jack is just too many Js :)

My children have siblings Poppy & Joshua in their respective classes. Joshua James has a nice ring, and gives you the potential for a JJ nickname.
