Immediate reactions to Arthur

I really like it and think it's a good, solid, masculine name but not sure if I'm brave enough to use it as I'm sure some people will think it's a really odd choice. I'd love to know your immediate and honest first reactions to it. I know I shouldn't be bothered by what other people think but that's how I am...obviously, or I wouldn't be asking for your opinions.

Lovely :-)

I did think 'Athur Fowler' for a second BUT, I do really like the name Arthur!

I love it actually, cure on a little boy, but 'mannish' enough for when he is older.

I love Arthur, was very soundly vetoed by DH though.
