Sebastian,Felix,Roman & Jonas are wonderful names
Thomas and James are the names of countless children at my children's school.
Dominic,Fintan,Stefan,Elliot are perfectly acceptable ,but just not my naming style

Dominic- A bit trying too hard. Reminds me of very pushy parents who make their child sit down and do his God damn homework even if it kills them. Dominic really will turn into a bit of a drop out.
Elliot- again trying just a bit too hard, parents want an "unusual" name but scared of going too far as this will cause their son to be gay.
Felix-cats name.
Fintan-sounds like a herbal remedy for constipation.
James- solid, proper boys name.
Jonas- will always have to repeat/spell his name to everybody he meets.
Roman- ok if you are bohemian and live in the countryside in a very remote village, where Roman will only meet 12 other village children and therefore unlikely to have the piss taken out of his name.
Sebastian-Coe or revisited.
Stefan-ok if you are German.
Thomas-very popular, ordinary, boring but classic.
