The unusual baby names for boys on this list are the ones we believe have the most potential. These rare boy names have genuine roots, are attractive, and work in the modern world. It might surprise you that parents aren’t using names such as Stellan and Cashel in droves, yet they rank well outside of the Top 1000.
Along with Stellan and Cashel, other unusual boy names worth considering include Barnaby, Cassian, Fielding, Grover, Hart, Lorcan, Orson, and Ward. Many names that are popular internationally are unusual in the US, such as Hamish, Laszlo, Linus, and Stanislav.
These names may be unusual in popularity, but they don’t skimp on style. If you're looking for boy names that are so unique that your son is sure to be the only one with his name in his classroom — or maybe even his state! — check out the selections here.
