I personally find the name highly obnoxious. It's a word name that I just don't get. If it's a noun, then why not name your kid Protestant or Greek Orthodox to further clarify? If it's an adjective, what about using Jewish as a name? It just always sounded really awful to me. It's one of my biggest pet peeve names. I think it is a bit weird to use on a non-Christian child, or if you're not religious, but I guess there are stranger things. I seem to be the only one on the board that thinks this way, though, so go for it if you love it. :P It really doesn't strike me as handsome in any way; as far as pure sound purposes go, it's kind of dull. What about
Christopher? Same basic idea, but much less in-your-face.

See, I can't even type combos without thinking "Buddhist
Charles" or "Muslim
Thomas." It's too word-y for me. Sorry!
