I lean towards Titus, but mainly because I recently saw a production.

I like Demetrius too.

I like Benedick. To the non-Shakespearean folks, it conjurs up feelings of betrayal, a la Benedict Arnold. To me, it conjurs up pictures of Kenneth Branagh looking cute.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
For the time period in question, and his social background?
I think, alas, that it's either Bertram or Sebastian. Which is a pity, really, considering all the other names, but who he is and where he comes from has to be taken into account, as well.

Between those, Sebastian is better, imo.

I like Sebastian best as a name, though I could see Demetrius working. Bertram, to me, has a nerdy feel.

I like Sebastian too.

My only concern with Sebastian is that it may be too much of a hero name--a little too much with the sexy and dashing and not enough with the pompous arse-ness.
