It does feel very ‘cowboy’ and wild west, so I can see why people shy away from it, but I have too many good associations with it to dislike haha. If you want that vintage feel with historical weight, then I think this is a lovely pick.
Okay, I'm just going to weigh in here. My son is named Orville and while not my first choice of name, I kinda like it. I'm English and I've definitely never met anyone with this name over here, but my husband is American, from the South, and it was a name he recognised. I refused to call our kid after any member of our families, which is kind of a Southern thing I wasn't comfortable with, but I was fairly happy to go along with this name because it's got history for him. YES I think it's a little old-fashioned but so what, it makes my son unique while not being weird enough for people to be mean about it.
