Apollo?

My little coronial has arrived and we still don’t have a name.

A few weeks ago the name Apollo popped into my head. What does everyone think? Would I be mad? Is it too far out? Our surname is very common and begins with S.

No. Would YOU want to go through life called Apollo? If not don't call your child it.

Bit much, imo.

Coronation street watcher ?

I love it

I love it, not sure that I would be brave enough to use it though. Myleene Klass has a son called Apollo, I think.

I know a lovely three year old Apollo, but in South Africa where names are often imaginative.
