Sibling for Ellis

I’m really struggling to find a boys name for our second. Our son’s name is Ellis.

I’ve always been really drawn to classic names (think William, Alexander, George etc) but we have very male dominant families so all the classic names have been used (I know we could use them anyway, but I’d rather not).

Would love some suggestions :)

To add - I don’t want anything super common (don’t want him being one of 5 in the class for example 😂)

Love Ellis, it was my choice (or Edwin) for baby #3, but having a girl after two boys. I met a lovely little boy called Ellis, with baby brother, Kit …
