I read this in Sarah Dessen's book and it's the baby's name. I love it!

It's also in Midsummers Night's Dream.

Is it too out there or could it be a grower?

Mmm, I'm not sure... I can't help but read it with a piratical accent, I'm afraid.

I kind of like it (would fit a family of Shakespearian names best, I think).

Possibly a lifetime of Bottom jokes ahead, though.
