Daniel and Jackson are my top
I don’t like Nathaniel but that’s because it’s a mix of Nathan and Daniel

I love lots of names but my can’t-go-wrong list is always:

William
Alexander
Thomas
James

All timeless classics that have never left the Top 50 (or Top 100 in Alexander’s case), so won’t date or give away social background etc. They are also very international and used in many languages as is (or at least well recognised in James case) so generally travel well; and apart from Thomas they also have multiple diminutive options if he wants the choice.
