HelpRe: Otis
in reply to a message by iris
I like it. I can think of several characters in movies with the name (and of course the wonderful Otis Redding), like Milo & Otis and Because of Winn-Dixie, which were already mentioned. It was also the name of Jason Ritter's character in Happy Endings, which made me take notice most recently. It's one of those wonderful old-fashioned old-man names I LOVE. I'd adore to see a sibset of brothers named Gus, Otis, & Jed or somesuch. :b
ETA: I also really like Otto, from which Otis is derived. But there's the 'auto' and 'otter' associations, and particularly the Simpsons' character that all kind of put me off it a bit. :-/
