Less common, single syllable boy names

Our first (a girl) has a relatively funky one syllable name and while I’m not married to the idea, I think I’d like our second child’s name to have a similar vibe.
So far, I like [name_u]Scout[/name_u], [name_u]Sal[/name_u], [name_m]Walt[/name_m], and [name_u]Lou[/name_u].
Any feedback about these names? Have any other gems that I’ve forgotten? I’m finding boy names to be more difficult than girl names.

I like your list so much! How about…
[name_u]Dale[/name_u]
[name_u]Finch[/name_u]
[name_u]Jude[/name_u]
[name_m]Hal[/name_m]
[name_m]Hugh[/name_m]
[name_m]Saul[/name_m]
[name_m]Bram[/name_m]
[name_m]Moss[/name_m]
[name_u]Jude[/name_u]
[name_u]Claude[/name_u]
