Don't know how unusual these names are, but they are nice short names.

For a boy
Ivar
Tor
Tyr
Odd (Norse name, means "spear").

For a girl
Ida
Ika
Gia
Pia
My
Moa
Li

I see that a previous poster mentioned the name Ola. That is a great name! In my home country it's a male name, but in many other countries I think it's a female name.
