Hey all, due in a few weeks and we are naming our son Atlas Isaiah. My only concern is that I don't want to choose a name that's too popular/becomes popular!
When I named my daughter Ava ten years ago, there were no other Ava's around-now they're everywhere! Same happened with my son Sonny 8 years ago!
I know it shouldn't matter but I'm just curious.....
Thank you :)

Yup, shit loads.

I know one Atticus
Is Atlas a name then ?
Ava and Atlas sound a bit too similar to me

Absolutely loads, best call him something else.

Isn't it a middle name of one of Kirstie Allsopp's boys?
Other than that, never heard of it used in a non-navigational sense.

I know a Lexi(con), a Dick(tionary), a Thea(saurus) a Gazza(teer) and an Al(manac) but never come across an Atlas.

Atlas? Well, I just hope he'll be a big lad, is all.

Never heard of it as a name so obviously I don't know any. It's gorgeous though. May I ask how you have chosen it.
But any name runs the risk of being one minute literally unheard and then next minute you're tripping over them.

Not a one.

Actually - maybe a cat?

Ha. I think you're pretty safe with Atlas.

Atlas?! I can safely say I don't know any...
