With Lysander, I keep thinking of the character in Midsummer Night's Dream--
I'd tend to go along with some of the comments about using relatively common/ordinary
names, though.
And be careful of the the initials. But for the grace of the obstetrician, I'd have had
EGG as my initials, "Oh, egghead," said he when my parents mentioned the intended
name.
I know that there's more variation in some countries, but I don't reckon that you can go
past a simple two sylable name.
But I'd vote fort Lachlan, if restricted to the above choices. But what about Justin as a
middle name?

Lachlan looked the best to me out of those choices.
South Africa had a crack horse-jumping rider named Lachlan MacLachlan. Sadly he died not too long ago, at a young age.
But Andrew is a solidly Scots name too, for all that it is of Greek origin (it means “manly”).
And Alexander (popular in Scotland since the time of Malcolm Canmore and his queen, St Margaret) is of Macedonian origin. The Gaelic form is Alasdair.
