I actually like it but people might mistake it for "prison". I love the name Cyan for a girl, but I won't be able to use it because it doesn't go with my fiance's last name. I like the way Sphere sounds but I would avoid using it because it seems easy to tease particularly if the child is on the stocky/chubby side. It would be an interesting middle name but still probably not a good idea.

Still just sounds like a math shape to me, sorry!!

Prism sounds very weird as a name in general to me.

I don't like the sound of it. Also, when you say it loud, it sounds kind of like "prison".

I think it's very cute. Different, but not so different that it's weird. I think it would work for a boy or a girl as a middle name. My husbands says it sounds to much like prison. He doesn't like it at all.

Thanks for the replies, everyone!

I think it sounds very strange, but I use prisms on a daily basis at school/work (optometry) so maybe that's why.

I immediatly thought of Miss Prism, Cecily's gouverness in The Importance of Being Earnest. It's ok. Not a hugh fan of it though.

I would actually prefer it on a boy, but I do like it. But I'm taking a math major, so my opinion may be biased because I love geometry!
