Favorite Boys Names From Mythology?

Boy Names

What are your favorites?
I really like [name_u]Tristan[/name_u], [name_m]Ulysses[/name_m], [name_m]Apollo[/name_m], [name_u]Artemis[/name_u] (I know she is a goddess, but I like it on boys too), and [name_m]Hector[/name_m].

I too love [name_u]Tristan[/name_u], and in high school suggested it to my pregnant English teacher, who chose it for her son.
I like less ‘out there’ mythological names like [name_m]Evander[/name_m], [name_u]Finn[/name_u], [name_m]Hector[/name_m], [name_m]Jasper[/name_m], [name_m]Leander[/name_m] and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m].

However, names like [name_m]Apollo[/name_m], [name_m]Aries[/name_m], [name_m]Atlas[/name_m], [name_m]Cadmus[/name_m], [name_m]Eros[/name_m], [name_m]Odin[/name_m], [name_u]Orion[/name_u] and [name_m]Perseus[/name_m] and I can definitely see myself using on a cat or two. I love the sound but I just couldn’t use them on a child

I really like [name_m]Ulysses[/name_m] and [name_m]Hector[/name_m]. I’m actually seriously considering these–though I think [name_m]Ulysses[/name_m] would work better as a middle name.

[name_u]Finn[/name_u]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m]

[name_u]Mercury[/name_u]
[name_m]Phoebus[/name_m]
[name_m]Siegfried[/name_m]
[name_m]Ulysses[/name_m]

Most of them are on my guilty pleasure list, though. I wouldn’t use any but [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] for various reasons.
