Boy's name ideas similar to Jacob, Isaac, Lucas

So far the only boy names I/we like are ones which won't work.

Jacob - a family member's name
Isaac - we both like it but it doesn't work with the family ties to the names where the name comes from in the Bible
Lucas - DH says it with a hard K which I am not keen on, and I expect his family would too.
I also liked Henry but that got a hard no from DH. Harry also would not work.
'th' names (Theo, Arthur) won't work as I struggle with the 'th' sound.

We are open to other Bible names (but the name must have positive connotations in the Bible) and we're also happy with a non-biblical name.

Please help us with ideas

How else would you say Lucas without a hard C?

But Benjamin, Thomas, Andrew, Michael, John and David all spring to mind.

Michael is a fantastic biblical name.

John, also.

If you'd like to stray beyond the bible, I'd suggest Bacchus.
