Phoebus

This is an old, ols favourite of mine I'd completely forgotten about a long time ago for some reason. It used to be one of my favourite boy names (ever since I read Victor Hugo's The Hunchback of Notre Dame) and now I kind of rediscovered it. I still think it's very charming and handsome. It reminds me both of 'Notre Dame' and Mythology, since it was one of the epithets of Apollo. WDYT of Phoebus?

It makes me think of a line in Romeo and Juliet (which I only remember because I had to sit through 20 girls reading for Juliet last year) as well as pretty much every word that's been mentioned. NMS.

It reminds me of the words feeble and bulbous. It is a funny, chartoonish sort of name... Maybe a name you might use to make fun of someone, like calling a plump girl named Phoebe, Phoebus Maximus. Sorry, my mind works in weird ways sometimes.Generate Your Own Glitter Graphics @ GlitterYourWay.com - Image hosted by ImageShack.us

I love a name with a literary reference. But, I'm not sure I like this only because Phoebe has become such a popular girls name. I like it otherwise.
