Baby Names

Boy Names Needed! Prefer uncommon but not weird. My husband hates all of my picks so far! :(

Just found out we are having a boy. I prefer uncommon names (at least outside of the top 500) whereas my husband likes more traditional names. For our daughter we settled on Linden (he was ok with the spelling, as he felt like Lyndon was traditional so he didn't think it was odd).

To give you an idea, here are some of the boy names I like (although I know some of these are more popular than I'd prefer):

Lowen, Rowan, Reid, Benson, Lawson, Landon, Hayes

Unfortunately my husband isn't on board with these. Any new ideas for us?! Thanks!
