It does sound geeky to me, and it also sounds coarse/outdoorsy/old-fashioned...I get a similar vibe from
Grover, though
Oscar is more modern/common.
When I was a kid, I associated it with the
Oscar Mayer Weiner song and
Oscar the Grouch (who I quite liked, so it wasn't a negative association, necessarily). Now I associate it more with
Oscar Wilde,
Oscar Isaac, and kids I know of named
Oscar.

I'd use
Oz if I wanted a NN for it.
Eta: I forgot about the Oscars (Academy Awards)...that association might add some glamour to it.
