Im having difficulty finding names I like. I need two - three names that roll off the tongue and wouldn't be out of place with a long hyphenated surname.

No religious names

No surnames

No places

Nothing that rhymes with Aden

Upvote good suggestions otherwise post ones. Bonus points if it's a sci-fi name.

Edit: lots of good suggestions, but I think I'm going with 'Wash'.

Call him? Or name him? How many syllables in the complicated last name?

Payton, Dayton, Craydon, Haden, Mark, Matthew, Luke, John, aaaand Moses!

Here's for something that actually fits: Thorkild (silent d, and th can be a t) meaning the arrow of Thor.

I don't think that it would be a good idea, but how about "The Doctor"?
