Original but not weird..

Hi everyone,
Can anyone suggest any boys names that are unusual but not weird? We simply cannot agree on a name but we know we don't want a traditional name (nothing wrong with them just not for us!) xx

@nikkil123 I also like it pronounced like Ky-an which I also saw spelt like Kaian which I think it lovely! But that may get mispronounced as Kay-an rather than Ky-an...

There is also a character called Hunter in Hollyoaks

To me Devon and Denver are girls names

I like the suggestion of Mason

How about August if he's born then? Tate? Maxim? Munro? Barnaby/Barney?
