Word Names, non mainstream

I think we have decided on our forthcoming baby's name, but in case I have overlooked something, I am keen to hear any unusual but usable word name names. Not the mainstream ones like Grace, Lily, Ruby, Jasper, Matt and Johnny, but the less pedestrian - e.g. Sailor, Cadence, Calypso, Journey, Phoenix etc.

Boys and Girls please!

I hear Saylor is becoming popular. Have you considered Maiden?

This is a challenge.

Off the top of my head: Summer, Autumn, Leaf, Neon, River, Star, Skye, Rhythm, Aria, Willow.

A lot of these names seem androgynous to me.
