Strong (but not over-popular) boys' names

[nasara]

I quite like traditional boys' names (James, Edward, etc) but I really would like a boys' name which is not too popular - the problem is I can't seem to find any! Suggestions very welcome :o

Michael.

All boys should be called Michael IMO.

Jonathan, Hector, Nicholas, William, David, John, Daniel, Victor, Clarence, Francis, Gregory, Peter?
I agree with Micheal - fabulous name!

Caius. It's in my list :o

Edwin, Hector, Quin, Herbert, Archer, Benedict, Albert, Wilfred, Montague, Augustus, Frank, Gilbert, Percival, Sidney, Lawrence, Theodore, Barnabas,Bennet, Garret, Horatio, Lucian, Ned, Reuben, Rufus, Silas, Stanley

I like Eric - it's easy to spell, easy to pronouce, not popular, but we know a grown-up Eric who is a bit hopeless - not necessarily a deal-breaker though.

Love Niall, too.

Hate Jago - sorry. Reminds me of sago

Oren is quite nice
