Short boys names

[Spannersintheworks]

Looking for suggestions for short boys names. We're just about the last of friends/family to have kids, so so many are already taken!

We have a really long double barreled surname and DH has a longer family middle name he'd ideally like to use (altho we're both open minded about this), so we we need quite a short name, ideally 4 letters maximum if possible.

I don't like really modern names like Kai, already know a Max, Rory, Robin, Roan. Help!

I love Kit! I'm not sure my husband will. Is it very popular at the moment?

Already have a Leo, a lot of Bens, Jack, Tom and Will. Big close extended family so we really do see lots of these kids very often.

We'd like something a bit different so I'm not such a fan of the traditional James, Sam, Hugo, Toby.

I think I'm definitely really fussy! I'm going to campaign for Kit!

@Spannersintheworks , not very but it's on a steep upward curve, and it's probably used as a diminutive of Christopher and similar names. It seems a lot more popular.

@Theoldwoman that is extensive! I love Jude, but there's a Jude in my friendship group. I've never heard of Reon, but I quite like it - I will add to my list! And I like Noah, just my husband doesn't.

So names like ... Kit, Jude, Reon, Noah, Robin, I like Remi too, but husband not keen.

He likes Arlo, but I hate it and he's suggested Emrys, but I'm worried that's a bit much.

Goodness naming is hard! Thank goodness we found out the sex so we've only got to choose from one list!

Emrys is nice but a bit unusual especially if you're not welsh.
Noah is the most popular boy's name (after Theo/Theodore if you count them as 1) and they're everywhere
