I think I prefer the sound of Atreyu, but the look of Atreus... Would be good for twins 😅

Which name would I prefer? Peter.

House of Atreus? He killed his brothers sons, cooked them, and fed them to his brother, then taunted him with the children’s hands and feet. Not sure it’s the best name choice…

Seneca’s play is one of my favourites though.

Ashtrey?

Neither?

Well if you want your kids to pronounce and spell their names for the rest of their lives either would do it.
Just go for Alec and Alex

Yup. Better read up on the curse of the Atreides. study.com/learn/lesson/who-was-atreus-greek-mythology-curse.html

Also the father-in-law of Helen of Troy.

I love Atreyu! I would assume it was from The Never ending Story.

What about Atticus or Artemis?

Atreyu for me is a band, it's like naming your kid Nirvana or something
