Borna –from Old Slavic 'born' meaning 'to fight'. More prevalent for men, but occasionally occurs on women. This was the name of a Duke of Coastal Croatia from 810 until 821.
It was #26 in 2009 and it's the highest ranking male B name in Croatia.

Cool, thanks!
I'm usually not big on "B" names, but some have been growing on me recently:
From UK:
Beatrice Alice Kingsley (Luisa), siblings Poppy and William - not a fan of Alice, or Kingsley on a girl, but this combo really works. Prefer Louisa, pron loo ee sah.
Lucy
Beatrice Mary (William)
Beatrix Minnie Elizabeth (Toby) - but the combo doesn't flow, I like all the names individually.
Eloise
Benedict Ralph (Edward) - whoa! The parents are cool to use Benedict, shame about Amber. Again, hoping Ralph is pron. RAYF.
Benjamin Henry
Benjamin, sister Betty - loving this sib-set, love Alliteration.
From Croatia:
Barbara - not as bad as I used to think.
