I’ve been crushing on this name lately but I’m unsure if it’s a bit of a guilty pleasure or completely usable. [name_m]How[/name_m] do you feel about the name? Is it wearable?
The connections don’t really bother me, I studied Latin in high school so I know that [name_m]Remus[/name_m] was the twin brother that was slain. I don’t really know or really care about the Uncle [name_m]Remus[/name_m] connection as I don’t think it will be at all relevant for the upcoming generations (asked a few friends about Uncle [name_m]Remus[/name_m] and they has no idea what I was talking about, just to test the waters). The last connection is notably the [name_m]Harry[/name_m] [name_m]Potter[/name_m] connection. Personally I don’t care much for the HP series, it’s a fun movie series (haven’t read the books) but i’m not a die-hard fan like many people. While I may be a slightly bit bothered about it being related first to HP, it’s not at all a deal breaker for me.
I love the name [name_m]Remus[/name_m]. At first I didn’t think it was useable without everyone thinking you took it from harry potter. But I met my first [name_m]Remus[/name_m] in rl a few years ago, he was about 20 and wore the name really well. I’m a big HP fan but didn’t think of Lupin straight away. So I don’t think you should let that hold you back.
I like [name_m]Remus[/name_m]. I liked it more after reading [name_m]Harry[/name_m] [name_m]Potter[/name_m]. It’s unusual and memorable easy to say and spell. To me [name_m]Remus[/name_m] is kind, sweet, and sensible. I think it’s wearable, or at least I can imagine it on a little boy or an adult.
I like [name_m]Remus[/name_m] a lot! I think it works because it’s a rather short name that’s not far from Rémi, [name_m]Rasmus[/name_m] or [name_m]Roman[/name_m], which are somewhat familiar names. So I wouldn’t see it is [name_m]OTT[/name_m] or anything.
I love [name_m]Remus[/name_m].
Thanks for you opinions everyone! I definitely feel like it’s more usable now that I see people actually like it
