I like:
Benedek (tad too similar to Benedict the Pope and Benedict Arnold, though)
Emil (love on a boy)
Gusztav
Imre
Istvan
Kazimir
Oszkar (prefer Oskari)
Rikard
Roman
Zsigmond (slightly too similar to Sigmund Freud, though)
Alida
Franciska
Ilona (I names are so undeniably cool)
Juliska
Magdalena
Mara (my mom's name)
Mariska
Margareta (prefer Margarita, the Spanish form)
Vida
Zsuzsa (if this is a form of Susan then I love it)

Thanks!

And what is it about "i" names? I've had a special yen for them for years.

I think it's that they're unusual

And they also just look so fresh and cool. Seriously, do you actually know any more than like 2 people with names that begin with the letter i?

Sorry, had to laugh at this since 'I' names have been #1 for 20 years in 1970/80 and I know a ton of them:-)
