Different but not silly names

HELP!
I need suggestions on unusual names, but I don't want anything that sounds silly. I did like the name Trey, but as I have found (after asking opinions in a previous post) it isn't really the best name for a white, middle class English boy...

My husband likes Rhys and Ty. I love Asher, but my husband hates it. Any other thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Ty or Tye... sorry that would make me always think of Thai - otherwise less of a name more of a noise...

Thanks for your honesty, I do like Ty (Tye?) it has grown on me, still not 100% convinced though.

Mitchell is going to be his middle name I think. I love it, but don't want it as his first name.

Nate and Trey are both names from Gossip Girl, watch a few American teen shows and you will get plenty of ideas.

However fav boys name is Phoenix
