"Classic British" names
Replies
Start by looking at our monarchy - Elizabeth obviously, Philip, Charles, William, Henry nn Harry. George, Edward, Victoria, Anne, James, Mary, Richard . . . and so on.
Others that I'd class as having the same sort of (slightly upper-class) British vibe:
Arthur
Gerald
Edmund
Edgar
Tristan (Tristram even more so, possibly too much)
Laurence
Lionel
Gareth
Jasper
Edith
Eleanor especially nn Nell
Ada
Alice
Lillian
Louisa
Matilda
Florence
Cecily / Cicely

Spring to mind right away. I'd look at British monarchs to get a good idea.
