In VOY: "Imperfection," Seven viewed a casualty list detailing all the members of Voyager's crew that had died thus far. It listed many names that had not been mentioned in the series, it is possible these were crewmen that perished during the rough trip to the Delta Quadrant. There are lieutenant commanders and one commander in the list, possibly one of these names is the unnamed doctor played by Jeff McCarthy or the unnamed and unseen engineer, both who perished in VOY: "Caretaker". In actuality, many of the names themselves were in-jokes, listing the names and initials of characters from NBC's The West Wing (Voyager's timeslot competitor).
