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'.

My wife and I ended up having a girl, but the names we were thinking of if we had a boy were Apollo or Layton. Those probably don't need your criteria, but just throwing it out there!

Hari / Salvor (both from Asimov's Foundation series) Rico (from Heinlein's Starship Troopers) Leto / Duncan (both from Herbert's Dune) Ender (from Card's Ender's Game series) Filip (from Corey's The Expanse series)

Honorable mentions Fry (Futurama) Jar-Jar (Binks)
