I think we have decided on this for our baby. DH loves it and i think i do too. Nothing else is really grabbing me anyway!
I like that it sounds strong and quirky but i think it would be cute on a toddler too. The only thing that puts me off slightly is whether it has been ruined by The Office (American version) and whether everyone will think 'Assturd' when they hear it.

What do you think?

I think it's a lovely name and would have it on my list if I could think of a nice nn for it! (Because I just know it would haven't get shortened, in my family)

And FWIW, I've never seen the American version of The Office :)
