Help[Opinions] Re: Artemis for a boy
in reply to a message by Dianatiger
The two examples of male Artemuses are Atemus Fowl, a fictional character (and he has an obviously made-up-for-comic-effect last name) and Artemus Pyle, and that's a stage name.
SO no, Artemus is not a good option for a boy; even the people who use it famously know that it is ridiculous and deliberately chose it for that very reason.
Artemis on a boy makes as much sense as Diana on a boy, or Adonis on a girl.
In other words, none.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
