Strange boys name

Please help, me and my husband cannot agree on a boys name I've only got 6weeks left and starting to get bit worried. We want something really unusual and different!
Our other son is called Kingsley.
We've sorta made one up last night 'Keo' but any other suggestions would be great :) x

I have a Griffin, it goes really well with our surname, uncommon but not 'out there', obvious phonetic spelling, 2 pleasant diminutives; Griff or Fin. I'm rather pleased with it, can you tell? Wink

Oooh, loving Griffin.

Oh please I beg you not kobi-jay! Why this obsession with sticking an 'ay' sound on the end of names? It sounds and looks awful. Also please stick with Coby, there is really no need to make it yoonique by spelling it kobi.

Kobi Jay

Lobi-Jay sounds like a Jedi name!

Kingsley is a fairly old fashioned type name I think. You need something like Peregrine, Gulliver, or Marlon with it.
