Truly Unusual Names

What are some of the most unusual names you like or love?

My favorite names tend to be of African origin. But my list was eclectic. I had a girls list with Marjani, Kiania, Tuliza, Kinaya, Aluna, Sareeya, Kioni, Mila, Bia, Muirna, Meryl... etc.

For boys I love Omari, Lazola, Sanga, Bercan, Brannon, Errol, and Garridan, Jedrek, Jotham, Langston, etc.

So, what really unique or captivating names have you liked or loved but never used for fear of teasing, mis pronunciation, other..?
