Don't take me wrong, but your question can be translated as:

"Do you know of other languages that are *popular*, but that I never
heard of and none of my friends have heard of?"

So what is the meaning of "popular", then? :-)

My advice: don't make your life more difficult that it already is and
stick to what you know and like. These are the two most important
factors of successful project.
