Re: Ulysses
in reply to a message by Laurasaurus
I really love this name. I know of one guy named Ulysses, at my workplace. He is once in a while called Ulie, but mostly Ulysses.
The fact that I know of one makes me think it's perfectly usable. Other than Ulie, another nickname could be Lys, but that's kind of effeminate. I would want to call a Ulysses by the full name. Yes, I'd consider giving it to a child, if I had three more boys, because I like Cassius and Evander more, and I'd use them first. But after that, I'd definitely consider Ulysses.
