I have an epic list of girl names but struggle with boys names!
Any male offspring is likely to be very pale white, ginger, scrawny and British if that matters.
I want a name that suits an adult male as well as a baby, which I think is easy to overlook. Mother in law has asked us to consider [name_m]Charles[/name_m] as a middle name. It doesn’t go with everything g and I did really want something more fun tbh!
I’m really attracted to [name_u]Orion[/name_u] and [name_m]Cosmo[/name_m] as slightly more out there (literally) names but not sure about their suitability for a professional adult.
I think all of the names on your list suit any age! I can imagine them on a baby, teenager, adult or elder. [name_m]Charles[/name_m] is nice with some of these, but if you don’t actually like it, don’t feel obligated to use it just because your mother-in-law does!
[name_f]My[/name_f] personal favourites are [name_u]Orion[/name_u], [name_m]Victor[/name_m], [name_m]Cosmo[/name_m] and [name_m]Hugo[/name_m].

I really like [name_m]Hugo[/name_m], [name_m]Lucian[/name_m], [name_u]Miles[/name_u] and [name_u]Orion[/name_u]. I think [name_m]Lucian[/name_m] is my overall favorite, especially if it flows with [name_m]Charles[/name_m]. If you don’t want to use [name_m]Charles[/name_m], you don’t have to. You can consider some alternatives such as [name_m]Carl[/name_m], [name_m]Carlo[/name_m], [name_m]Chuck[/name_m], [name_m]Chaz[/name_m] or [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] as a middle name too. I can imagine so many kids this generation will have more unusual names because parents don’t really want their child to share a name with so many. That being said, I can totally picture an [name_u]Orion[/name_u] as a adult. [name_m]Cosmo[/name_m], not so much, but I think that is because I associate it with a dog.
Dorian [name_m]Charles[/name_m] but is it too similar to [name_m]Charles[/name_m] [name_m]Darwin[/name_m]?
If you don’t like [name_m]Charles[/name_m], don’t use it. Your parents had their chance naming babies. [name_u]Or[/name_u] you can use [name_m]Charles[/name_m] as a second mn.
I love [name_u]Dorian[/name_u], [name_m]Hugo[/name_m], [name_m]Vincent[/name_m], [name_m]Lucian[/name_m], [name_u]Orion[/name_u] and [name_m]Cosmo[/name_m]. I think they all work on adults!
