I like Teddy only as a nickname. Theodore is much better on its own (and while I don't like Edward, I think it's better than using the nickname Teddy on its own)
August is nice. Shame I don't like Augustus all so much because I feel like I should
Remy I don't associate with vintage names only because the literal only Remy I've ever heard is the rat from Ratatouille and I'm going to be honest, I thought it was made up for the character
Since you tagged unisex, I will note only the unisex names I like;
Billie / Billy short for William and Wilhelmina
Alex / Alexie / Alexei / Alexis etc short for Alexander and Alexandra
Jules maybe? I prefer it as a boys name, but I've heard it as a short form of Julia / Julie

Teddy I don’t like simply because it reminds me of teddy bears. Theo would be better imo.
August is great and I don’t see anything wrong with it. It’s rare for word names to work on guys, but when they do it’s usually pretty cool.
Remy I like for a girl but not for a boy. It’s kind of too delicate for a boy.
Here are some vintage names I like
Boy:
August
Emmett
Felix
Henry
Oliver
Vincent
Wesley
Girl:
Ruby
Cora
Iris
June
Rosa
Joy
Vera
Daisy
