Well, if David does not want a name that would be laughed at, that already eliminates names that are overly exotic (like Merlin or Baelfire for example).

I think it also has to be a name that is associated with a character that has already appeared in OUaT; otherwise the name would not evoke such emotion from Ginnifer.

The best bet would be after a dead character, so the possible choices in my opinion are:

Daniel - my first choice, for all the reasons others have stated.

Liam - Did Hook actually ever mention his brother's name to David? If he did then this would be my second choice after Daniel. Hook did save David back in Neverland and has proven to be a steadfast ally (even though I still question his choices in that whole cursed lips fiasco). But his history with the Charmings doesn't extend nearly as far back as with Regina, so Liam is my second choice.

Neal - unlikely as the Charmings did not know him that well and it is much more suited for Emma's child if she ever has one

Graham - unlikely too because of his history with Emma and Regina. It would reopen old wounds and cause quite a bit of awkwardness.

David's father - probably not. I think when Ginnifer said when the baby evokes emotion, it would be from the perspective of the audience and not the characters. While David's father's name would have a lot of impact on David, it would have very little on the viewers.

Evan (after Snow's mother) - I like this name a lot. But I don't think Eva had a really big impact on the viewers.
