Musically Inspired Baby Names vs. Suggestions?

We are looking for unique but likable names for our boy that are music-related. Not crazy about musical terms but maybe a name inspired by a band or musician. For example, I love the name Jagger, but my husband doesn’t. So something like that (but that we’ll both hopefully agree on!) Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thank you.
