Can I make a pitch for my great uncle's name: Ephraim Higginbottom. I've always thought it was deliciously old-fashined. He was the first child of my great-grandmother's second marriage, her eleventh child out of a total of twelve. I think she went a bit mad with the new surname. And if you're looking for an unusual female name, his wife was a Faroese woman named Brynhild.
