Name for a boy in July

I’m due in July, but my husband and I are having trouble picking a name. Our last name is Heywood.

Here’s some names we like:

  • Holden: We love 'Holden' and the alliteration and how 'Holden Heywood' sounds, but we’re worried about “Holdin’” jokes. Plus, nicknames seem challenging to come up with. 
  • Malcolm: We LOVE the nickname Mac, but we aren’t in love with the official name ‘Malcolm’. (We thought about Macklin but it still sounds too ‘made up’. We also thought about just ‘Mack’ but we wanted him to have the option for a longer name).
  • Emmett: We like this name, but it hasn’t stuck for us for some reason. 
  • Asher: Like it, but worried about it feeling a bit dated in the future.

Names we like but won't use: Archer, Sullivan, Barrett, Bennett, Spencer

We love but can’t use: Wyatt, Weston

I'd love to get some feedback or more ideas!
