Thalia

Thalia is a great name that doesn't get enough attention these days which makes it a really great, unique baby name.

Flower names are quite popular with babies. There are plenty of them: Rose, Lily, Daisy. Thalia is a flower name but it's far more subtle in its' roots. Thalia means 'to flourish/to bloom' which is a lovely name meaning to bestow upon a child. It's floral without being too flowery and isn't all that common. It is also the name of the Muse of comedy and poetry. This is a really artistic name for a child with a beautiful soul.

Alternative to Thalia: Dahlia, Daria, Darya, Tahlia, Talia.

Aurelius

Now here's a name I'd never heard before...

Aurelius, similar to the female name Aurelia, is a gorgeous name. It's strong yet musical. The Latin name means 'the golden one' and is fairly unknown at this moment in time. It was the name of a Roman Emperor (Marcus Aurelius) and therefore has a strong, regal feel to it. Marcus Aurelius was said to be a stoic philosopher. A character called Dr Aurelius in the Hunger Games movies may boost the visibility of this Latin charmer.

Warren

The name Warren has fallen out of fashion so this is the perfect time for it to see some rise in popularity. It's a short name, easy to remember and simple to pronounce.

Some say the name means 'park keeper' or 'warden' but the name is also the term for the home of rabbits. Rabbits typically live in a 'warren' which makes this a sweet, homely name. It feels similar to other popular names like Ethan and William. This could be the name for a little boy whose mother really cares for him and keeps him close to heart.
