Unusual/ gothic boy names?

I've been reading the 'dark and delicious girl names' thread and loving a lot of the names on there but the only problem is....I'm having a boy this time! I am completely uninspired and haven't come up with any names I love so any suggestions along those lines would be appreciated.

I do like Tyrion, I wish GoT wasn't so popular!
Dexter is a good one, I like Axle too but DH isn't on board.
