Chinese name for Nigel

What you do think of this name? 杨志斌? My mom don't really like the word "斌" coz she said those people with this character in their name cannot study. I think it's quite biased? Coz my intern's name contains this character and obviously she is not stupid.

FIL asked why I don't want to start his name with "杨家X" (he & Hui suggested 杨家乐) since Valerie's name starts with it. I thought since one is a boy and the other is a girl, it's ok to use something totally different? I borrowed some books to read up which ended up making me more confused as some based their 'theory' on simplied chinese while the other based it on traditional chinese characters.

Confusing!
