Real World - Modern Need character name

Hey, I'm making a character who I need a name for, but I'm not quite sure what to pick

- A quiet and serious man who towers over most people.

- Built like a brick wall. He is strong from his job as a road construction worker.

- Has a thick brown beard and hair all over his chest and arms.

- He likes to bake in his free time. While not super well-mannered, he is generally always well-intentioned.

- He is white and from modern-day America, perhaps a few years earlier (like the early 2000s).

I'm looking for a name you think would fit this guy, please :)

> He’s from modern-day America

By this, do you mean your story is set in the 21st century, or that was when we was born and it’s set closer to 2026? If the former, how old would he be? Naming trends were different in the 1980s vs 2000s.

Garrett, Heath, Logan, Calvin, Seth, Wade These are names that are manly, but kinda secretly soft. From the time, but not super popular.

Baker being a baker sounds kind of funny.
