What dya think?

I think Artimus is a stretch for [name_m]Archie[/name_m]. [name_u]Archer[/name_u]?

I really like it! Artie/Archie are similar plus there’s the archer connection to [name_u]Artemis[/name_u] so I don’t think it’s a stretch at all.

Very cool!

I love [name_m]Artemas[/name_m] (or Artemis…but I guess [name_m]Artemas[/name_m] is maybe more masculine :thinking:) and the nn [name_m]Archie[/name_m] is clever and quirky. I think that [name_m]Artemas[/name_m] is way more unique & slightly less trendy than [name_u]Archer[/name_u] too. I may be a teeny bit biased, because my sweet male cat is [name_u]Artemis[/name_u] nn [name_u]Ari[/name_u]. :heart_eyes_cat:

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps. :slight_smile:

I think it could work - especially if you get a CH into the middle, but even without, I can see it

(as a side, there was a berry a while back who had an [name_m]Archimedes[/name_m] ‘Archie’ :slight_smile: )

it’s cute

artemas seems like a misspelling of artemis to me

I love [name_m]Artemas[/name_m] for a boy! Less keen on [name_m]Archie[/name_m], but I think it makes sense and could be cute anyway

I’d prefer [name_m]Art[/name_m] as the nickname, but I think [name_m]Artemas[/name_m] is completely fabulous and [name_m]Archie[/name_m] definitely works.

I love it! I have [name_m]Artemus[/name_m] nn [name_m]Archie[/name_m] on my list, so I definitely think it works. [name_m]Artemas[/name_m] > [name_u]Artie[/name_u] > [name_m]Archie[/name_m] isn’t too much of a stretch imo.

I think it works, the same starting sound helps a lot!

[name_m]Just[/name_m] the variant used in modern Greek (as a boys’ name). In modern Greece boys are called Achilleas and [name_u]Aris[/name_u] instead of [name_m]Achilles[/name_m] and [name_u]Ares[/name_u] as the pronunciation has evolved. I suppose it’s like how Eadweard became [name_u]Edward[/name_u]?

[name_u]Or[/name_u] perhaps our translations are inaccurate anyway? Romanised/anglicised? (not a slap on the wrist btw, I’m just waffling)

I love the name [name_m]Archie[/name_m] as a nickname for [name_u]Archer[/name_u], but [name_m]Artemas[/name_m] is def different… Its a stretch, but I think I could see it lol
