I also really like Seraphine and Sapphira, which are similar to your Seraphina and Sappho - though I understand, of course, are not the same. I'm just illustrating that we have very similar tastes in feminine names (especially Scheherazade "Zadie"!).

Alexander - Handsome, strong, classic. I prefer Alex as a nickname.
Frederick - Dependable and courtly. I really like it but am not a fan of any of the nicknnames.
James - This is one of those popular names that is hard not to love. (I have a soft spot for James Potter)
John Paul - Nice. It reminds me of John Paul Jones, who was the USA's first naval commander in the American Revolutionary War.
Ronan - cool
Theseus "Theo" - A less used alternative to Theodore with more mythological associations.

Esmé - pretty
Evangeline - elegant, powerful
Rosalie - gentle, old fahsion charm
Saoirse - Love the meaning
Sappho - Intriguing. I wouldn't use it myself by I like it.
Scheherazade - This is fun to say, but it looks like a sneeze.
Seraphina - Love
Xenia - nice

My favorites are Aurelius, Frederick, Theseus, Wolfgang, Sappho (yay!), Scheherazade, and Xenia.

I like:
Alexander, but not so much Alec
Frederick
James
Leonid
Ronan
Wolfgang (really like)

I don't feel Theo 'works' as a nickname for Theseus, it feels too much of a stretch for me... but that's 100% just me.

Esme (prefer Esmee for some reason)
Iris
Rosalie
Saoirse
Xenia
