A sibling for Cillian

Please help us think of a name for our next baby!

We already have a DS Cillian, but I cannot think of any names that go nicely with it!

If we have a girl, I like names along the lines of Hazel, Lux or Pearl, but DH has vetoed all of those! And we cannot think of a single boy name we both agree on.

DH says nothing to "traditional" eg Thomas/Edward/James, but nothing too "modern & popular" eg Oliver/ Noah/Oscar.

Grateful for any suggestions!

Thank you for your suggestions! I'm loving Ronan, Jude, Orla and Jemima. DH has said no to Ronan, he straight away said Ronan Keating 🙄 still stuck for a boy name. It doesn't have to be Irish.

For Cillian's brother
could consider something ending in -n such as Tristan, Byron, Duncan, Ryan, Aidan
consider a name ending in a different consonant such as Silas, Oscar, Edgar, Sullivan, Dominic, Rhett
Or what about Gregory, Gabriel, Henry, Nicholas, Jesse

Lux or Pearl - Camay, Shield or Imperial Leather?
