Too Out-There?!

Hi! My hubby and I are both fans of crime fiction, and we recently stumbled upon a name we love: Dashiell (after 1940s author Dashiell Hammett). We are enamoured with the name, but we're a bit unsure how other people will take to such an "unconventional" name--thoughts?! Thanks!

Although I’m not a fan of the look/sound (at least what I imagine it to be) it doesn’t appear to be wildly out there even though I’ve never heard it before, possibly due to the familiarity of Da at the beginning which is in so many names
