It all depends on details, including what definition of Paganism you want to do. In its technical form, Buddhism and Hinduism are considered forms of Paganism; colloquial wise, there is still a wide variety of paths spanning all over the world and inspired by all sorts of matters (like Star Wars...).
To help get a better idea of what you are looking for, what do you feel is right about life/what do you believe in? Do you have any preferences of pantheons, environments or concepts that you wish to work with?

There's a gigantic list of religions/philosophies within the Pagan subset.
Neo druidism -- no link, I'm not even sure if this is the proper name. Its a restructuring of some of the old Celtic beliefs, before Christianity came to the scene. I'm not overly familar with it.
And something a little more homegrown (brand spanking new to the Pagan field):
Sorry about the wiki links, obviously they are only as reliable as the people that wrote them. I would suggest checking on sources within the articles. Etherism is to new to even have a wiki article.
