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 a Jabez in my family tree (boy). I think that's pretty unusual now.

Aubrey for a boy is unusual, elegant, a bit posh and old-fashioned.
Aubrey for a girl is part of an ultra- modern American trend for unisex/boy names for girls and in the US a girl called Aubrey (which is mega popular) would most likely have sisters called Brianna or Taylor. It's a VERY different vibe to your other names.
