Need classic boy name ideas please!

DH and I totally cannot agree on boy names.  Our last name, while not this, sounds very similar to this: Friedrich.

DH loves the name Kellen (I don't want a boy named Kelly, and I think our last name needs something more classic and less trendy, because our last name is so strong.)

I LOVE William/Willem (Nickname Will- he won't because FILs name is Bill), Theodore (Theo), Maxwell (Max), Benjamin (Ben), or Samuel (Sam) but he doesn't like ANY of these names.

 So we're stuck.  And in need of help.  If anyone can suggest classic names that aren't too trendy and don't sound silly with a name sounding like Friedrich, please help us! :-D :-D :-D

    Henry is the first thing that came to my mind. Also Robert, Richard, Maxwell, Marcus, Levi...

    ETA: Sorry, I forgot your DH vetoed Maxwell.

    Thanks guys!  Keep them coming please!  We can't do Matt because that's DH's brother, I don't like Henry because of the nickname Hank... (ew), and also I'm kind of against most H names as they sound weird with our last name.  You guys also named 3 of my ex-boyfriends on these lists.  LOL.

    I like Arthur at the moment - it can be shortened to Artie which is kind of cool I think! Also Archer is a fave.
