What are your current favorite conservative male names?
For the sake of clarity lets consider conservative as meaning having a reasonable history of use and at least relatively well known.

We have very similar taste in this I think. I've never really considered Hilton before though it is an interesting choice.
I really like Edward. I like the nickname Teddy for it as well (while he's small). I also find Ned handsome.
I also like James but I dislike the meaning.
I do like Henry as well.
Richard is rather nice too.
Hmmm and I guess if you mean classic in certain areas, then I also like Cormac, Finlay and lots of older Irish/Gaelic/Welsh names.

I like Edward NN Ned as well. I am honestly right there with you my favorite conservative male names are usually Edward, Henry and James (with the NN Jamie). Though I will also include Luke, Matthew, Mark, Vincent and Victor to the mix as well. Honestly if I was with a partner that Hated unusal names and wanted strickly conservative I'd have no issues if we only had boys. Boy names are a lot earlier imo haha I am open to a lot more different "styles" for guys compared to girl names I believe.
