Help me name a potential brother for [name_f]Eliana[/name_f]!

We had a girl name picked out long before we were ready to have kids, it was barely even a discussion we just loved it. We could never agree on a single boys name so fortunately our first born was a girl! Now we’re thinking about expanding our family I want to find a boy name we love just as much but my boy naming style is all over the place and very different to my husbands.

I would love some suggestions to help clarify or expand my style so we can hopefully find some common ground and both fall in love with another name. Things to consider:

  • having at least one good nick name is very important to us,
  • our last name starts with F so F first names are out
  • we have strong Italian and [name_m]Christian[/name_m] heritage

Names I love: [name_m]Abram[/name_m], [name_m]Archer[/name_m], [name_u]August[/name_u]/us, [name_u]Everest[/name_u], [name_m]Ezekiel[/name_m], [name_u]Finlay[/name_u], [name_m]Fletcher[/name_m], [name_u]Jericho[/name_u], [name_m]Matteo[/name_m], [name_m]Xavier[/name_m]

Names I love but don’t love the nn potential (feel free to suggest nicknames for these): [name_m]Atticus[/name_m], [name_m]Cassius[/name_m], [name_m]Forrest[/name_m], [name_m]Gideon[/name_m], [name_u]Henley[/name_u], Hutton, [name_m]Wesley[/name_m], [name_m]Weston[/name_m]

Names I love but are to common for my liking: [name_m]Ezra[/name_m], [name_m]Ruben[/name_m], [name_m]Leon[/name_m], Malachai, [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m]/ael

Names I love but feel a bit to uncommon: [name_m]Anders[/name_m], [name_m]Inigo[/name_m], [name_m]Ignatius[/name_m], [name_m]Orson[/name_m], [name_m]Vincenzo[/name_m], [name_m]Zalman[/name_m],

Thanks in advance.
