Names on your list that are completely different from your style?

Do any of you have names that you like that are totally not your normal style, or that you don’t know why you like them?

(Edit because I forgot to add my own)
I have several that I feel are outliers, several of which are place names.
[name_f]Alaska[/name_f]
[name_u]Albany[/name_u] (g)
[name_f]Abilene[/name_f]
[name_u]Denver[/name_u] (b)
[name_f]Shasta[/name_f]

[name_m]Elio[/name_m] Stargazer and [name_u]Asa[/name_u] [name_u]Hummingbird[/name_u] are too out there for my style but I love them! I’d probably say [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] too

I don’t usually like overly frilly names so this one isn’t my normal style.

[name_m]Hugo[/name_m], [name_u]James[/name_u] and [name_u]Miles[/name_u]
Not because of style, but because of their popularity. I normally wouldn’t go anywhere near names in the top 100, but I like so few boys names that I’ve had to relax my rules to have any kind of long list to discuss with my partner when the time comes.

I have a few that deviate from what’s become my “norm”:
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f] - this has always been a guilty pleasure of-sorts that doesn’t match anything else I love.
[name_f]Farah[/name_f] / Farah-Leigh - it’s an honour name (and a name I really love) but it doesn’t go with my other names.
[name_u]Hayden[/name_u] - I just really like this name, but it does NOT match anything else I love.
[name_m]Gilbert[/name_m] - it’s a very sweet classic, but its the only one of its kind on my list.

I like a lot of greek names that I couldn’t possibly use, Eunomia, Laonome, Nausicaa, Psamathe

And I love [name_m]Aleksey[/name_m] for a boy, but I couldn’t make that work for me

Answering my own question because I have a new one.
It’s not actually on my list but I just like it, Ella May.
I don’t like double barrel firsts, and I don’t like Ella or May, but I like Ella May.
