Help[Opinions] Julius
I'm really crushing on Julius lately. I have always enjoyed it, especially once I hit High School, because my cool, mysterious European art teacher was named Julius, but I'd forgotten about it for quite a while. Now I'm loving Julius with a vengeance.
It's so jolly, dignified and shiny and a little geeky without being too wimpy. It's smart. I like that you can shorten it to Jules if you want, which was one of my great-grandfather's middle names.
what do you think of Julius? Due for a bit of a comeback, or too old-fashioned?

I like it a lot. It has all that Roman imperial dignity going on, but it's also very friendly and happy. Those two 'u's are like great big cheesy grins.

I love Julius. I'd use it too.

Mmm... Orange Julius.
That's all it makes me think of. Yum.
I'd agree with your image of jolly and dignified. Yes, I very much can see that. That or a basketball player. I don't really like the name, but I don't dislike it either. I generally am not a fan of names that end in -ius.
I wouldn't call Julius old-fashioned at all, but I'm not sure if it will ever make much of a comeback. I can definitely see Julian doing that. It's softer with the -n, and -s is harsh.

Julius sounds so wonderfully opulent to me! I love it, and I definitely think it's ready for a comeback.
