Teacher with a tough last name...please help me.

Last week my H and I found out we're having a boy! (EDD 3/24). We're super excited but cannot even begin to decide on a name. We had a girl's name chosen--Mabel--and had agreed we liked a few others--Maeve, Charlotte, Cora, Ruth, and Genevieve, just to give you an idea of our naming style.  I'm a middle school teacher, so many names end up out of the running because of students I've had in the past (Zachary, Eli, Dylan are some of my absolute no-gos).  Also, our last name is Johnson (I'll edit that out in a while).  So, well, Harrison (Harry), Sawyer, William (Willie--although William may be the MN) is out, as well as several others because I'd prefer not to give future classmates any additional ammunition, lol.

Right now, I've got Everett, Elliott, Garrett, and Theodore on my list.  H has vetoed Theodore mostly.  I could really use more suggestions!  Thanks!
