Name for male best friend

Greetings!

I’m about to start work on my second novel which I’ve been planning for a while now. The book centers around a confident girl whose name is [name_u]Vivian[/name_u]. She is a smart, no-nonsense, slightly precocious 17-year-old who loves the Beatles above all. Her best friend is a boy I need to name. They go to school together and are each other’s other half while being the exact opposite at the same time. While she is spontaneous and strong-minded, he is more pensive and unconfident (but he always ends up going along with her). Like [name_u]Vivian[/name_u], he loves the Beatles, as well, (it was how they became friends in the first place) but perhaps not as fanatically as her. I’ve been thinking about names like [name_u]Harry[/name_u], [name_m]Simon[/name_m] and [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] but nothing has clicked yet. [name_m]Feel[/name_m] free to suggest names totally unlike those three, though. I’m open to anything!

From reading this, my first thought is [name_u]James[/name_u].
