Would my son be teased/bullied for having this name?

Please help!! Expecting a little boy in a few short weeks.

William is the only name DH and I really love (we do like others - James, Noah, Henry, George but they're taken by close family members). We have considered Jacob, Joseph, Alexander, but whilst they're lovely names they just don't feel 'right'.

The issue is our surname. He would be William Waters. We're concerned that 'Willy Waters' would be a playground bully's dream.

What do you think? Are we over thinking it or would it be cruel to saddle our little boy with this?

Thanks for your help.
