Genuinely unusual (but not silly) names

I would love to know any genuinely unusual / rare / uncommonly used names. Not interested in very out there things like Apple or Unicorn, but unusual yes. I loved the names Wren and Frank but both are getting far too popular! One syllable is of particular interest as we have made a double barrelled surname.

And particularly interested in views from London as each area seems to have its own trends....

Lots of names from Greek mythology suggested. Some are grand names but read the stories first. Pandora? Released all the badness out into the world .... nice name... less good association , for instance😂 and of course many are worse. Fortunately no one suggested Oedipus .... well at least he loved his mother as Tom Lehrer said !
