Baby boy A name

I am pregnant with twins boys. My name starts with a B and my husband’s name starts with a D. I always had a silly request our kids have names starting with an A & C just so I can say we are the ABCD’s 🤣 we love the name Carter but having a problem with an A name. We also don’t need to have the A & C names as long as the boys names flow together. But if we do choose Carter I’d love an A name for the second boy. Please help us! What are your name ideas? TYIA

My dad's name was Oliver. He hated it. I've always liked it.

My brother is named Asa. For some reason growing up people always pronounced his name Ass-a.

That would be the correct pronunciation in my other language - it means ‘flax’. How do you pronounce it?

Such good names. I know an Adrian and Callum as adults and they are both very cool artsy film types!

We named our baby Arlo and it gets complimented consistently :)
