Challenge: Need good solid, not too common / boring boys names!

[LittleMum]

Here is the challenge! Everyone submit boy names that meet this criteria:

Not too boring. Examples: John, Robert, Michael etc

Not too common: Jack, Charlie, Harry etc

Not too cutesy / weird: Keegan, Preston, etc.

Not too 80s: Kevin, Anthony etc

OH and I are really struggling to think of good solid English names that don't fall into these criteria!

I like Ralph and Dylan but worry that the latter will be shortened to Dyl (which I really don't like) and Ralph reminds me of the noise you make just before you're sick?! Lol
Is it just me?!

Franklin? It's a traditional English name apparently. It's my sons name and I always seem to get positive comments

Other suggestions of strong sounding names:

Flynn
Finn
Logan
Maxwell
Joe
Brody
Quinn
Lennon

 

[smallpeanut]

We have chosen Joseph ... It's getting common but we love it and our dd would have been Joseph if she had been a boy so we don't care

 

[StaceyKor]

If we have a boy his name will be Lukas (DH is polish). We chose that name when pregnant with DD (& obviously couldnt use it) but its still #1 choice for us x

 

[CloverMouse]

Top 3 for me
Felix
Quinn
August

I always thought that about Dylan too, but now I think it has become our number 1 choice

Ralph reminds me of the Simpsons!
