Struggling for inspiration. I quite like artsy / naturey / literary names. Except Atticus. Really not a fan.

Anything unusual, creative, outside the Top 500-ish?

Anyone? Smile

Have a look at last years' ONS list of ALL boys names used - lots of inspiration outside the top 500 there.

Torin or Tiernan?

Sorry, I can't really think of any more - most of my favourite names are not outside of the top 20, let alone top 500 Grin.
