Help with middle name

Something my husband and I have battled over; is a middle name for Stamen(Stah-men) it's his grandfathers name. Traditional Serbian name meaning strong, grounded, sturdy etc. So he wants it to be the babies first name. He likes William to be a middle name. I am not a huge fan of it due to knowing someone personally with that name that kinda killed it for me.

It's such a strong and unique name. I am kinda stumped. Any suggestions would be awesome!
