James, Teddy, Freddy?

[PlumGoose]

Read sooo many of these threads and finally writing my own and hoping for help.
Found out we are having a boy and been stuck on names ever since! Getting close to due date and nervous we don’t have a name…we had a shortlist of 3 but not convinced on any:
like James but really dislike Jay and my manager is also called James!
like Teddy (Ted?) but really dislike Ed/Eddie and not sure how well it ages otherwise
like Freddy (ish) but had an awful grandfather called Fred and would hate it to be seen as a tribute.

any thoughts or other names to consider? No H names please due to surname. Thank you in advance hoping for some inspiration.

James 100%
Teddy sounds stupid and should be Theodore or Edward anyway.
Freddie should be Frederick. Hate abbreviated names as full names.
Can't stand all this Alfie/Archie/Jimmy/Timmy/Bobbie

Personally I love James.

But, you have 3 possibles. Why decide now? When baby is born one might just fit them better.

They've probably named him by now, @Notagooddaytoday , @Happymchappyface .

But it can be if people want it to be?

I love all these names ! I have a Ted. There are quite a lot of freddies and a few teddys at school but I haven't met a James since I was at school (I'm late 30s) it's a lovely name . Not much help as I like them all. I am not as keen on teddy which is why we named ours just Ted but it's a nice name that could get shortened to Ted when older

What about Frankie if you're not sure on Freddy?
