[Opinions] Nixon, Atlas & Titan
All spotted at my daughter's daycare. There are actually two boys named Atlas.
The moral of Pete's story is: No matter what you step in, keep walking along and singing your song... because it's all good.

I met a little girl named Nixon recently. I think she was maybe 3-ish? I almost recoiled from the amount of wtf. Titan and Atlas are cool names for a big dog. Maybe even better for a very tiny dog. But not people.

I've seen Atlases and Titans running around too. Fortunately no Nixons. (being a pretty liberal area I would be a little surprised if I met one)I kinda like Atlas.

All three: a lot to live down. Let's hope Nixon isn't a crook and Atlas and Titan aren't clumsy and scrawny.

Is Atlas getting popular? I know one around M's age. His mom is also from the Midwest coincidentally. I like it. Though it is a bit heavy and I wouldn't use it.Titan feels like a joke. I just can't imagine a newborn Titan at all. Maybe as a nickname for an exceptionally strong kid.Nixon is terrible association wise. I hope ots a family surname.

God names in general are becoming popular for boys. I've heard Atlas, Titan, Thor, Loki, Zeus, Bran, Apollo, Mars, Orion, and Odin locally.

No clue about Atlas.Or popularity. I'm the one who knows three Clives, after all. ;-)

Nixon isn't something that I would want to name a child. Atlas and Titan....those are certainly names to live up to.

I like Atlas as a GP. Titan is an okay name...for a pit bull. Nixon is all kinds of bad. Why would you want to be associated with Tricky Dick?

Atlas and Titan sound like missiles. I know for sure Titan is a missile. I think Atlas is a rocket, actually, but same difference.
Nixon is terrible.
He was so a crook.

I've met at least two Nixons. (wrong spot - reply to Rachael!As for proof of Atlas, would you like a signed affidavit from a daycare teacher? ;-)

Nixon is an American kid? Okaaayy.Two boys named Atlas? That's unusual. I'm not sure I believe you. I demand proof. ;)Titan is just plain stupid. I'd rather be named Atlas, even though that's stupid, too. I don't like all these MIGHTY Greek or Roman names being used on scrawny little kids. Even a grown man named Titan sounds ridiculous. Wonder how many big dick jokes he'll hear in his lifetime.
