    Ohh i like them, very different...

    I think i like Zyeden (Zy-den) & Xeyrus (Zy-rus) and think they go well with Jeremy.

    Maybe try saying your favorite out loud with DS1's name (pretend your yelling at them) and see what you think

    I'm not a big fan of unusual names but a couple from your list stood out for me:
    Torrin
    Zethe (I'm a fan of Seth) but I would probably spell it Zeth.

    Don't want to stress you out too much - but are they pronounced pretty much as they're spelt because as a teacher (and I used to do relief so would have to go off the written class list on names) it can be quite tricky to work out how to pronounce names. I still have trouble with a couple of names (Kirsty and Kristy as they're very similar and I had one of each in my class at one point are just one example). But if you really like an unusual name don't let that stop you.

    Out of your list

    Zethe is my favourite. I like Seth as a name anyway, but the alternative spelling is cool.

    I think it goes well with Jeremy too

    My least fave is Travix - seems like a name of a car or something "like yeah I got myself a Honda Travix!"

    I like Zethe and Zyeden. I like names with unusual letters in them!

    My favourite out of your list is Xeyrus (Zy-rus)... although I'd probably play around with the spelling to make it Xyrus because I initially pronounced it Zay-rus. Another name I also like is Talan, which is similar to Torrin.

    I like Vaddon, that would be a very nice name for a little boy.
