I want old fashion and/or unusual.

My list so far is:

August - B
Aubrey - G
Margot - G
Viviene - G
Kit - B
Perry- B

However, I'm still very undecided and atikk searching for a name that makes me thing "oh I love that!" So far I'm more "mm not bad, I'll put it down"

Hit me with the golden oldies! .. and odd ones!

I have an Auberon (have totally outed myself now) - apparently there is an elderly gentleman in our town with that name, never found another.
When people ask his name they always hear it as Aubrey...he get shortened to Obi or Aubes.
