Go indeed has a simplicity and elegance that makes it really easy to write code which is highly performant and easy to maintain. That is the only reason I picked go when moving from common lisp.

Is there such a thing as uncommon or rare lisp?

Possibly even Epic Lisp, Legendary Lisp, or Exotic Lisp.

Common Lisp is the name of a programming language.

Yes. In the long history of the Lisp family of languages, many dialects have been created, and most of them are uncommon and rare, becoming more if they are disused and recede into history.
