Boys names beginning with M

We have an M surname and as a massive fan of alliteration (yes I know its not for everyone) I'd like a slightly offbeat first name that starts with an M for a boy. Anyone got any interesting ideas? Its much easier to find M names for girls it appears.

Not keen on Mark, Malcolm etc - looking for something a little more offbeat. Ideally European and old-sounding (am actually mad for the likes of Mordred, Mather etc old english names but think that some might be a bit too way out!). Not too posh etc like Milo.

Unless your surname is minor. Then ignore Morris

Malachi - I know one who pronounces it to rhyme with "pie" and one who pronounces it to rhyme with "key". But both spelt that way.
