Unsual old names for a boy ??

[Lucafritz]

So just found out im having a boy and i am totally stuck on names none of the ones i had picked out sound right now ive seen him
So far i like
Elliott
Alistair
Asa
Im wanting something English but old and unique any ideas ?

Ptolomey... The p is silent

Aidan? Just as you seem to like A names.
I have to say, Elliott is nice but not really unique, it’s fairly popular I think?

Albion
Ido
Lysander
Merrick
Ernest

Silas

Peter

Bede

Conrad
Tobin

Florian
Ivan
Ivor

David
Alan
Paul

Edgar
Not unique but old and rarely heard these days (or not by me, anyway!)

Desmond
Peter
Wilbur
Derrick

All under-5s I know so not unique but certainly unusual.

Estcourt
Kingsley

Old & unique - isn't that an Oxymoron?

You'd be pretty safe with Edred, Malcolm or Clarence, I'd say. Or Ethelbert.

Edgar
Duncan
Ian
Bertie

Magnus
Felix
Guy
Aldrich
Benedict

Ceef pronounced Keith

Ooook. I want my baby to have a sense of individuality not to be beaten up in tje2 playground..
Maybe its more Unusual quirky names im looking for

Laurence

Jude
Kit

Cuthbert is due a revival

Cecil
Cyril
Stanley
Sylvester
Hugh
Clive
Eric
Ernest
Bernard

Joking aside, though, there's a local 2 yr old 'Beckett'.

Quite like it.

May not necessarily be inevitable he'll get shortened to Beck (though that's quite cool, IMO)...everyone calls the above toddler only by his full name!
And is a name which ticks the box you mentioned, as it's old and English.

To clarify: the 'joking aside' referred to my 1st suggestion, not FawnDrench's list!

Emil is old fashioned but not popular and a lot like Elliot

I know a Hereward.
