It's a bit too far out there for me. What if he is a quiet introverted type?

Makes me think of Apollo 13...

ADORE it!

Ramonaramona73 · 15/08/2016 20:02

No I wouldn't.

WaitroseCoffeeCostaCup · 15/08/2016 20:04

If you love it, go for it. People either love or hate my kids names, and this will be the same!

Battlestar Galactic is what immediately springs to mind for me, so you might get some people thinking you're superfans. But, I like it anyway, and if you do, then go for it!

Creed

Apollo will be very jealous of his twin brothers normal name.

Lunar1 · 15/08/2016 20:54

Change your name to Apollo, give your child a proper name.

gingerbreadmanm · 15/08/2016 20:54

RHOA and i love it but agree its a bit out there.

Mrs5boys · 15/08/2016 20:57

Word of warning we recently called our cat this but whenever we called his name out it sounded like "a polo" so then all I could think of when i called him was does anyone want a polo !!!! We since changed his name !

TroysMammy · 15/08/2016 20:58

A mint with a hole in it.

SoleBizzz · 15/08/2016 20:58

I know horse called Apollo.

Mrs5boys · 15/08/2016 21:00

Mind you I knew someone who called their baby Scott and I thought he'd get called snotty Scotty but he's 20 now and no ones ever called him that ,,, different strokes for different folkes hey !

WaitroseCoffeeCostaCup · 15/08/2016 21:00

But the 'pollo' I'm Apollo sounds nothing like polo?

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 15/08/2016 21:01
