Not really any available family names that we like, so looking for idea of gadol to name for.

Regular litvish.

R' Chaim Kanievsky
If your husband considers himself a talmid of a certain yeshiva, you can look at the names of different past roshei yeshiva and see if any speak to you

If you have no family member, or no gadol that you specifically feel a connection to, personally I would look to the Torah (or tanach) next... So like names of avos, shvatim, etc

I have a hard time when I see questions like this on imamother
Do YOU have a connection with a gadol? A rebbi? A book you read that inspired you?
Is there a name you connect with?
Someone else canโ€™t just choose a gadol for you

Shlomo zalman very beautiful name after R Shlomo Zalman Auerbach ื–ืฆืดืœ

Yisrael Meir chafetz Chaim

I reccomend when you see your son for the first time you name according to how you feel then. I know people that have picked one name and then once they saw their son they went with the one fitting for their neshama.

My brother in law is ื™ืฉืจืืœ ืžืื™ืจ and he never speaks lashon hara about anyone, truly a very outstanding individual
