Boys names...not a clue!

Just as it says in the subject! We are happy with quite a few girls' names but when it comes to boys, neither of us can even think of one that really fits the bill (no pun intended!). The only criteria are that we'd like something that's a little out of the ordinary but nothing too weird! Suggestions please?

i think we have similar taste. we have a DS who is Noah and are really struggling for boy's names yet again this time. girls names are sorted but i am driving myself mad with boys' names. want something not too common but a recognisable name.

i have a list of the kind of names i like but apart from Luca, which DH says is ridiculous unless we wake up italian, i don't love any of them:
Ben, Henry, Jake, Jasper, Jeff, Leo, Louis, Milo, Oscar, Rex, Scott, Teddy, Toby, Vinnie, Luca, Felix, Jacob, Nathan.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO difficult!

babyblabber do you not like Luke or Lucas as an alternative to Luca? my next door neighbour's son is Luca and they're in no way Italian!

i do like luke puzzletree but worry that it's a bit boring with our boring surname. don't really like lucas.

Is this another zombie thread?

Haha I didn't realise it was so old, it was StephA updating on her name choice.
