Baby Names

Wdyt of the name Atticus?

To Kill a Mockingbird is one of my all time favorite books and of course, I love the character Atticus Finch.  What do you think?

Re: Wdyt of the name Atticus?

  • I feel like this name like I feel about Loki. I love it in theory but just cannot picture a kid being named that.

  • It's a good book, but I don't really understand the appeal of ?the names associated with it. It's NMS, just too out there for me.?

  • It's a great dog name. But not so great for real people. Of course, I am petitioning DH to name our daughter Harper Leigh...
  • I like the idea of this name, but I feel like it would have to be a really cool kid to pull it off.

  • love it.  there is a nestie on 6-12 or maybe 12-24 by now whose baby's name is Atticus.
  • A high school friend named her son this last month. I'm not crazy about it, her son is Atticus Ezekiel which I think is too much.
  • I like the idea of it, but it would be a big name to live with. If the kid was really cool and confident then it might work out well.  If not....  If you love it though, go for it!

  • I know a little girl named Scout. I like it, but I'm not sure about Atticus.
  • It is our neighbours dogs name so that is the first thing I think of sorry.
  • Not sure I'd do it, but I don't dislilke it. Harper or Scout are better homages. :)

    me too..but with Scout. There are actually quite a few names I love but wouldnt use. Maybe i'll start a new post about this, I'm sure everyone has a few.

    I love the book, but hate the name Atticus. It's very, very harsh sounding.??

  • I also love the book, but I'm not a huge fan of the name. It sounds like a character, not a real person.
