Atticus?

What do people think of the name Atticus?

It is on my list for DS2, I do like it but can't say I'm overly wowed by it as I'm worried it'll be the "Jayden"/ "Tracey" of it's time where it was fairly rare then exploded in popularity before fading again.

Dh loves it and isn't sold on some of my other name ideas which he thinks are a bit "too different"/ "just horrible".

DS1 does have a name that slot of people seem to dislike but once we called him it he just fits the name and I really can't imagine him as something else. I suppose no matter what we call the baby it'll feel like their name.

Dd has a very common name and I always feel sad that she doesn't have something more unusual as while it's a nice name it's pretty nondescript. I also have a boring name which I don't really like so maybe I'm over thinking it a little.

The other boys names I like are Ragnar, Heath (DH hates this one) Sage and River (can't use River as half of the surname is a place but it's a name I would otherwise use)

I really like Atticus. I disagree with the Jayden comments. Atticus is quite a posh sounding name to me and the one child I do know with that name is from a well to do family
