Cedric is one of my top two, I would definitely use if I had a baby tomorrow boy names. I love it.
Gabriel, Jasper, and Matteo are also excellent names.
The ones I don't like: Holden - I dislike that it sounds like a verb - holdin'. Paired with whatever mn, say Michael, I think "Holdin' Michael?" It just bugs me. Matthew - So boring. So, so, SOOO boring. Xavier - Like it pronounced ZAY-vee-er. Love it that way. But would never ever use it because of all the people who mispronounce it X-ay-vee-er (even though no other X words are pronounced that way...) Isaiah - Too common. I know 3 or 4 baby Isaiahs, and I really don't know a lot of babies. Jace - Too nicknamey by itself.
