Uncommon names for babies

[Celestialwish]

Hi everyone!
I'm expecting twins due in late September and DH and I are struggling to think of names. My DH and I already have a son (biologically his from a previous relationship, Mum is not in the picture) called Zachary, who is 5.

We're not interested in weird/alternative spellings, but we do want something that is uncommon or unheard of, that still goes well with Zach's name.

Any ideas?

Girls: Meredith, Romilly
Boys: Edgar, Mark

On what planet is Mark uncommon or unheard of?!!!

Abiathar - a High priest, Eli's gggrandson - means father of abundance
Amos
Asher
Bartimeus
Caleb
Cleopas
Elam
Enoch
Gamaliel
Jairus
Quirinius
Reuel
Seth

Atarah - means crown
Dorcas - everybody says you can't use this but I love it
Hephzibah
Igdaliah
Imnah
Jedidah
Keturah
Mahalah - this is in my Ancestry tree twice, but nowadays everyone would think you'd made a mistake with Malala
Orpah (Naomi's other daughter-in-law)
Perida (apparently the name of a group of people, but I quite like it)
Rahab
Rhoda
Talitha (though a child might at some point discover that it's from Talitha-cumi, which could be a Bad Move)
Tamar
Tirza
Tryphaena

I think there’s more young Zaks around them Mark at the moment.

Elias
Luke
Elijah
Joseph
Connor
Conrad
Ewan

Or Luca, Lucas, Ethan, Jacob, Finlay, Elijah, Theo, Reuben Darcy, Evangeline (will be just yet another Evie), Lottie, Madeleine, Caitlin, Madison or Arabella.

Probably, but it seems unlikely that OP had any choice in naming Zach, under the circumstances…

Don't think I know a Mark under 40, might be a regional thing if it's common where you are.

Mark is definitely quite uncommon these days. As the 266th most popular name last year, it’s much much less common than most of the other names that have been suggested
