[Opinions] Judas
Given the infamous role of the biblical Judas Iscariot, the name Judas is eminently unusable. I know. But does anyone else love it anyway? Just curious, because I adore it.

I don't like it enough to use it (even disregarding the biblical association), but I like it. Judas Hyperion would be a cool combo...

The only names with an oo sound that I like are Ruth, Lucy and the Susan family. So, no; regardless of what a bloke of that name might or might not have done 2000 years ago! That said, I am frequently to be found singing along to 'Hey Jude".

No,I don't really like it, but I do like Jude.

I don't like it all that much, the association is just too strong. However, I do like Judah, and I think it is useable.

Even if it weren't for the infamous Judas of The Bible, I would hate the name. I hate the JOOD sound.

I love it. Judas Maccabeus in the Old Testament was an awesome guy; it's too bad Judas Iscariot ruined the usability of the name. I'm consoled by the fact that there is still Jude and Judah!

I like the sound of it, but you're right it is very unusable. I would never use it because so many people would have instant negative associations. :/

I like it too. I also like the name/word "Iscariot". It's so pretty looking.

I sounds nice, but I love Judah, almost exact same sounds, and a bit better associations.
