Wolfgang m  Without a German ethnic-background and surname (neither of which I possess), "Wolfgang" should never be put to use.

Thomas m  Besides this being a splendid name itself, I have known many a "Tom"/"Tommy"/"Thomas" bearers who give it a respectable reputation. 
Charlie m  Adorable diminutive. 
Hugh m
Ivan m  Among other things, "Ivan" seems extremely masculine to me. It is phenomenal. 
Ian m  "Ian" has always been a name that I did not despise, but at the same time, never truly liked. It has since grown on me, minimally.

Calvin m
Christian m
Zimri m
Alfred m

Rohan 2 m & f
Turin m
Valentine 1 m
Vittorio m  "Tor(e)" would be an interesting nickname. 
Volkan m
Daisuke m

Louie m  Marvelous nickname, usable from many first names. 
Jared m
Remus m  Even though I am a fan of the Harry Potter books, it is not the sole reason of my liking for "Remus."

Dean m
Glenn m
Jethro m
Koenraad m
Paris 1 m

Willard m
Winoc m
Angelo m  What a classic, handsome name. A bit stereotypical, though. 
Charlemagne m  A pool of pretentiousness, it is. "Charlemagne" is still charming, though.

Lestat m
Silvestro m
Vulcan m
Moran m
Odin m
Ren m  "Ren" has long been a name of fidelity to me. Rewind into my childhood, I had a character that I used to sketch with this name.

Maverick m
Caelestis m

Kanani m

Reagan m & f  Ah, Mr. Ronald Reagan... where have you gone? The world needs you dearly.

Stylianos m
Valko m
Vincenzo m  "Vinny" or "Vinnie." 
Vitale m
Warren m  I have always struggled in a love/hate relationship with this name. Paired with certain surnames, it is fantastic; paired with certain surnames, it is an atrocity.

Melchiorre m  Used with the intention of nickname'ing "Mel" or "Mick(ey)." 
Davis m
Howard m
Lux m & f
Astrophel m  This name is glorious! Perhaps a brother to "Severus" (or "Severo"), be it reality or fiction?

Errol m
Heber 1 m
Legolas m
Luciano m  "Luca" would be a fantastic diminutive. 
Luke m  I am constantly altering my opinion of "Luke." Certain days it makes me want to vomit; certain days it makes me want to grin in positivity.

Raniero m  Nickname "Nero"... although it is very controversial. 
Riccardo m  Nickname "Ricky."

Celestino m  "Les" could certainly make a suitable nickname.

Cristoforo m  While there is nothing particularly wrong with "Christoper," "Cristoforo" tickles my taste-buds a bit more. 
Hayden m  I would never use it. As a character, it's fine.

Hank m  A nickname of "Henry." While I understand the culturally and contemporary distaste, my view will not falter. 
Dov m  It would be a difficult nickname to successfully pull off... unless the boy is of a certain character, it would appear weak and effeminate. 
Gregorio m  I do believe that I would have to mentally restrain myself from calling him "Gorey," though... I find it difficult to believe that people would react well. 
Nero 2 m  It would be very risky to use such a controversial nickname (for "Raniero.") I am fond, associations aside. 
Daryl m
Sheldon m  While I would never use it, it is very oddly alluring... and growing in questionable popularity.
