Classic but rare baby boy names

[TheFutureIs]

I’m a teacher, so when naming a baby I want something unusual but not weird.
I loved Alastair but unfortunately my partner has a cousin named this
Girl names are so much easier!
Any suggestions of similar names?

Edwin is lovely @MyAutumnalCrow . We know one Nicholas. His DB is Adam which I’d say is also a classic.

I really like Walt, as in Walt Disney. I haven’t ever known a Walt in real life.

Peter.

Walt Disney's full name was Walter. As a pp suggested, if you're looking for a classic name, avoid nicknames.
Also be careful of spellings, eg Philip is the classic spelling rather than with the double L in Phillip.

Rupert
Lorcan
Ptolemy
Darius.....a long time favourite of mine.

Look in the bible. Ham, Japeth, Noah, there’s hundreds of names barely used…

@TheFutureIs Maybe classic wasn’t the right word, I assume that someone has already pointed this out to you.
Newton will be Newt.

Sasha (the girl's name is Sacha)

Kit (nn for Christopher)

Xander is quite popular round where I live.

I also think Lando will start to become quite popular soon, owing to Lando Norris doing pretty well in F1 at the moment.

The same thing happened with Jenson Button. There seemed to be a surge in baby boys being called Jenson!

@AgentPidge Sasha (the girl's name is Sacha)
Sacha is French (m). Sascha is German (m). Sasha os Russian (m)
Sasha (UK) is unisex but usually (f).

I was thinking of the Russian boy's name. I knew a girl called Sacha (English). So I suppose the OP could use whichever spelling she likes for either sex!

I love the name John (but I think I'd spell it Jon).
