Artemis Cosmo?
in reply to a message by molly
Well... besides the fact that I really don't like the name Cosmo, at all, there are some names / combos here that I do like:Iona Everly Wren
Romilly Winter (but not Bo)
Romilly Elsa (but not with Margaret)
Casper Timothy Rupert
Ottilie Julia (this is gorgeous)
Wilfred John Enzo
Ivo Balthazar Michael (I'm guessing Shellard was someone's surname)
Natalie Caroline (I'm not big on either name personally, but this is objectively good)
Orlando Frederick James
William Nicholas (but not Cosmo, obviously)
Freya Elaine & Caspar David (I'm not very familiar with Yoruba names, so I can't really comment on those)
Olivia
Sebastian
Augustine Geoffrey Hugh (manages to contain three separate pronunciations for the letter G)
Circe Mary (Circe!)
Oscar & Daphne
Lara
Miles Zachariah
Francesca & Johannes
Nicholas Willoughby Hayden (but again, not Cosmo)
David Alexander
Anthony RaphaelThe combo Artemis Cosmo gave me the biggest eyebrow raise. I've seen Artemus used for a boy (like the character Artemus Gordon), but Artemis is a Greek goddess. I legitimately no idea if Artemis Cosmo is a boy or girl.***Please rate my personal name lists:www.behindthename.com/pnl/69381

In the US Artemis is used in unisex, I suspect in part because of Artemis Fowl. I've actually known more male artemis's than female. And at any rate regardless of the origin it definitely has a more masculine sound to it than feminine imo. I myself am not planning for more than 3 children, 4 at max, but if for some reason I had multiples and they all happen to be boys I would give serious consideration to Artemis for boy #5 or #6.

In the US, I think Artemis as masculine might be more common than Artemas or Artemus (not that any of them are actually popular). I think it's been used that way in various places sporadically for a long time. And there's Artemisio, etc.
