Can anybody suggest some unusual boys names please? We do like Arlen but I'm just unsure as I don't want people to think it sounds like Alan?!Also we don't want Arlo as I feel like it's very popular now.

Help!

Also Asa or Asher?

Isn't Ori one of the Lord of the Rings dwarves?

If you like Ori, you may like Orion and Ori as a nickname?

No, it's pronounced like 'sorry' without the s.
