These are some Norwegian names that I think would work well in the USA and also IMO are not extremely common. But they probably are heard of.

Alva
Karita

Do you think that after the ESPN debacle that Espen is usable? I remember hearing someone posting something to the effect of "Omg, I saw someone named Espen today and I can't believe they copied those stupid parents that named their kid after the sports station." I had to kindly correct said individual. Will people in the US think that Espen is just a version of ESPN?

I didn't think of ESPN. I thought it more close to Aspen. But I see your point entirely. I bet some people would associate the two.

I would much rather have an Aspen association than an ESPN association.
