Re: Atlas
in reply to a message by mirfak
I like it a lot.
I think it's a common enough word that "Greek god" is probably not the first thing that comes to mind for most people, or at least, the association is more diluted than for say, Hercules. So, I don't see a problem if by chance Atlas grew up to be a 98lb weakling. It's nerdy enough to be more well-rounded than that, for me anyway.
I also tend to just like boys names that have that "a" sound- Addison, Alistair, Anson, Adler, Atom....
