X could work for you but isn't entirely a stand-out for originality. An obscure and dark sounding Male name could be something like Silas. But it all depends on what the story is about and what your character does and can do etc.

I like to use Celtic names because they often sound exotic and dark. There's a long list of them at http://www.babynamebox.com/celtic-baby-names.html and maybe your could somehow incorporate the meaning into the character, I find that usually helps the character grow in personality or "realism"
