Wow a list of 10! Hubby and I never even come close to that so don't worry if you can't agree on that many. In the end, you really only need one name.
I think we may have similar taste, looking for those heroic, romantic and manly names that are fantasy-esque but still wearable. My own boys are Caspian and Zephan and our latest little guy is probably going to be Peregrine, though we haven't entirely ruled out Quillan and William. (Zephan is a contraction of Zephaniah. Just say Zephaniah with out the -iah and that's it. Peregrine is PEAR-ah-grin).
Here are some other names we considered, or that you might like (sorry if I repeat):
Arundel
Archer
Aragon
Armand
Boaz
Corwin
Desmond
Devereaux (though I don't know if this is actually wearable, my sister says it sounds like a midlife crisis LOL)

Hugo
Frederick
Gideon
Leonardo
Lorenzo
Quade
Rhett
Rhys
Rhindon (this is the name of Peter's sword)

Riordan

Daxton
Gerard
Balendin
