Thoughts on the name Crusoe

I’ve recently come across the name Crusoe and I really like it especially with the nickname Crue for a boy. Whenever I mention it to anyone they think it’s a bit weird so I was wondering what everyone on here thought of it?

I like the middle names
Crusoe Dean
Crusoe Brooks
Crusoe Jack

And sibling sets I’ve been debating are
Crusoe and Kassian
Crusoe and Koda
Crusoe and Cash
Crusoe and Florian
Crusoe and Foster
Crusoe and Juniper “pip”
Crusoe and Olympia “pia”

Robinson is the only Crusoe

They'd get Robinson as a nickname

Yes, of course they would. That will be the first thing anyone thinks when they see "Crusoe"

No. Just no. You’re naming real life people not pets or characters.

Far too Try Hard.

Everyone will go 'what?' and 'how do you spell it?' constantly.

That's because it is weird, I'm afraid.

Call him Jack.

Crusoe and Cash sounds like an action film

Just no.
