Classic with a Short Nickname

Boy Names
1

We just found out that we are having a BOY! We have one daughter, named Ev3lyn, called Evi3.

Our front runner is Calvin, nn Cal. But want to make sure we’re considering more names before selecting a name. We seem to like classic names with a short, one syllable nickname. Some that we like so far are:

Calvin nn Cal
Maxwell nn Max
Isaac nn Ike
August nn Gus
Silas nn Si
Henry nn Hank

What other names should we consider?

[name_u]Benjamin[/name_u] “Ben, Benji”

I can’t think of many you’ve named most of my favs!
