Help me name my baby boy!?

I am having a boy in Feb. I have a 2 yr old named Henry. I have been pouring over books and websites and pretty much hate everything. (Could be pregnancy mood swings involved here!)

What I need is a list of boy names that sound good with Henry, are not too common, but aren't too weird either. My husband has been no help! I hate the ultra trendy names too (i.e. brayden, cayden, aiden, jayden etc...)

I would love to honor someone in my family, but I really don't like the available male names in my or my husband's family (Herbert? Alden? No way!) Henry was named after a dear dear friend, and his middle name is my dad's name.

Thanks!

    What about Holden? It's kind of a mix between Herbert and Alden. I don't know if you'd want to have two sons with names that start with h.

    It sounds like you prefer traditional names, but don't want a boring one.

    Say this aloud, as if you're calling your boys to the lunch table.

    "Harold ! Henry! Lunch is ready!"

    Thomas isn't too trendy, and it sounds nice with Henry.
