Literary/explorer boys names - Ernest’s bro

Boy Names
1

Hello

We’re looking for a boys name for baby number 2. Big brother is [name_m]Ernest[/name_m] [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m].

Chose [name_m]Ernest[/name_m] due to literary links ([name_m]Oscar[/name_m] Wilde/[name_m]Hemingway[/name_m]) and also explorer links (Shackleton).

[name_m]Keen[/name_m] for another name that has impressive predecessors/links attached!

Thank you for any ideas :slight_smile:
