Unusual boys names

Hi,
Trying to think of boys name for our little one. After a scare today, I feel like we need to make some progress fast! Please help.
Looking for an unusual yet timeless name. Don't mind a bit off-beat. Could be biblical, literary or Victorian-y. Any suggestions?

Can I ask what your girls name was going to be?Smile

In your family Angelto5? Do you have a large family or do all of you just like unusual names?

Angelto5 · 20/01/2015 13:46

Grin from family research DH has done so some are a bit dated Smile

I like kaiser as pp suggested!

However, my all time favourite boys name is Grayson (will be my first boys name Blush) which is slightly unusual!

Angelto5 · 20/01/2015 14:03

I love Grayson
I also love Dougray Smile

Hope your scare wasn't too serious...

Boys names I personally love, are..

Aubrey
Cassius
Cosmo
Hugo
Todd
Travis

I love unusal middlenames too. My daughters middles are STAR and BLUEBELL.

I'd like PINK or BLUE next time, as a middle name. Also like days of week, depending on birth but not Friday or Saturday...sounds like a featured club night!

Our girls choice was Sylvia (Silvie for short).
We thought baby might have been coming early, but luckily hospital managed to stop it, but feeling like he could emerge in the next week or two (although hospital said, he could still be late as babies like to be contrary!)
