We are really struggling to find a boy's name for DC2 (got lots of lovely girls names in reserve). We have a shortlist, but to TBH are unsure about all of them... So come on give me your worst, and point out the obvious ridicule DS will get which I have missed!

The list conforms to the rules:
Not too popular. I have a popular name and I spent my life also being known by my physique (Tall / Young XXXX), job, origin, sir name etc; and I hate it. So I want something unusual - but that then becomes more difficult / controversial...
Our Sir name is short and abrupt, but we think these go (unlikely to be abbreviated / sound OK)
To put in a family context (and probably give away my RL persona): It's the son of a Rufus, and the brother to a Tristan

Hugo
Dean
Miles
Adam
Lawrence
Andrew
Kieran

Be honest - better now than later!!

Agree with Janeite that Lawrence goes best with Tristan.
