Are Zeus or Apollo too much?

[Midnightdream]

I love these names but are they too much to live up too?

Would consider Zeus for DS2.

Far far too much

Way way too much. Please don't inflict this on your children.

Just a tad.

Yes.

Yes.

Only a lot

Don't be THAT parent, for the sake of your DC

That solves that maybe a middle name

Yes. Especially Zeus.

I love Apollo! Wouldn’t do Zeus.

I love them!

Too much what? But yes.

Great as a middle name but too much as a first name!

Aris (Ares) is a perfectly normal modern Greek name, though. One for the list?

Apollo was Zeus' son, so it'll be weird for that reason alone.

Samuel L's character in die hard 3 was called Zeus, wasn't he?
Nobody thought that was too insane!

But really... would you really call your kids that?

Save them for your dog’s name!

I don't like them, sound like bull dog names sorry!!!

Zeus is too out there for me. I think Apollo seems more usable - it's picking up slightly to having about 15-20 babies per year and I can see it rising. Mythological names are a current trend and I can see Apollo rising on the back of that, especially as it ends with an 'O', which catches another name trend. I seriously doubt it will become the new Arlo though!

I know a pair of dogs called this

I met a Greek guy once called Phoebos, which is a name for Apollo.

You'll look demented yelling those names across a playground!

Save them for pets. They are lovely names though.

Yes

Too much. I'd feel sorry for the kid, but secretly admire you.

Apollo is usable IMO. Zeus is a step too far!

Apollo and Zeus are my cats names! 😂🤣

Love Apollo
