Need ideas for 3rd son

We are having our third boy in June and I need some fresh name ideas. I feel like I have heard them all. My two older sons are Gideon Joseph and Ezra James. Their middle names are family names. This child's middle name will be Matthew.

The names we have thought about using are Solomon and Linus. Solomon is the front runner but I am still looking for that name that just grabs me. Our last name sounds like Fox. 

We really don't want to use another E or G name and we would like to stay out of the top 100 names. The name does not have to be biblical but I just want it to sound good with Gideon and Ezra.

I think Deacon and Calvin are great suggestions!! :)

I'd suggest Simon, Lewis, Nicholas, Thomas and Arthur.  Oh, and Augustus.

Someone I know had a third son and named him Seth. I'm pretty sure it was after Adam and Eve's third son. I thought it was kind of cute how they did that. I like the name Seth, but it might not be a good sibset.

Nothing useful to add. Just wanted to say that I LOVE both Solomon and Linus. Carry on.

Simon Matthew goes great with your other boys name

Simon is not in Top 100 and does not begin with E or G

I like a lot of the suggestions of PPs... but I didn't see Sebastian, so thought I'd throw it out there. I think it goes well with the other two.

Gideon, Ezra and Solomon are a pretty intense biblical sibset - even if that is what you're going for. I think Linus sounds really nice with the sibling names. While it's NMS, I think it makes a much better rounding out of the "set" than Solomon.
