This is my dad’s name and I’m sure after six decades he doesn’t feel this strongly but he hated it growing up. Which is completely understandable, that’s a heavy name to carry as a child. Even today he’ll use Ock or our last name which is also a common given name. But I definitely feel like it’s given him a powerful presence. You’d never guess how sensitive he is in these moments. But he steps into Octavius when he needs to, even if it is to my embarrassment xD.
