Currently TTC without much success but DH and I like to discuss baby names anyway.

He is on board with my other names - for a girl; Lydia or Elena and for a boy Henry or Winston. But he hates, hates, hates Otis! But I love it.

MN opinions?

Yes Goostacean Otis Redding is may have been my inspiration Grin

The name just makes me smile when I hear it. I suppose I will just continue to work on DH.

I like it Smile but it does make me think of the aardvark. Showing my age!!!

I used to see that name on the lifts at work

Inoffensive! IMO :) Puts me in mind of Otis Redding. Seems quite different to your other choices!
