Imagine what a nightmare it will be for the kid having to name him this, people having trouble pronouncing it and kids will tease him. Please don't give your kid this mouthful of a name!

I think the name Artaxerxes is utterly badass and awesome! I love it's ancient vibes. :D.

Artaxerxes was also the stepson of Esther, and the king who released the Jews to Israel, decreeing that they should be allowed to rebuild Jerusalem and the temple.
Whoa, that's a mouthful! I wouldn't name my child that only because I'm sure they'd be made fun of growing up and they probably wouldn't even be able to say their own name as a preschooler. I'm sure that there's a great story behind this name, but, I'm 100% American and that's not the name for me.

ARTAX was the name of the horse who died in The Neverending Story. Always makes me cry!
