Got it, I'll get the name derived from the most rural local dialect or language (eg. Scots Gaelic name in Great Britain)

Good luck, we already adopted all of them. Might be some left in Welsh that are still unusual.

Aye, I'll settle for that... Welsh seems too unpronounciable

I can recommend Irish, German, and Dutch for very pronounceable names that people will generally get wrong from reading - stuff like Seana, Hannelore, or Johan will fuck most people up.
