Romeo vs. Atticus vs. Dantes

I like unique, but not over the top names, so I thought I’d try some from my favorite literature (Romeo & Juliette, To Kill a Mocking Bird, The Count of Monte Cristo). What do you think?

The Top Baby Name is...

Romeo

21%

Atticus

42%

Dantes

37%

I love the idea, voted for Atticus. I would prefer just Dante without the S, maybe after Dante’s Inferno? And a big no on Romeo, I would prefer one of Shakespeare’s that doesn’t have so much teasing value. Other ideas:

Holden (Catcher in the Rye)
Corey (Boy’s Life)
Toby (Roots, although Kunta hated this name)
Twain

I agree with first poster. Love the name Holden! And Toby is super cute too! The names you have are just alittle weird, and I think would get him teased. Sorry.
