Comments for ADONIS:

Absolutely beautiful! A gorgeous and exquisite name!

I would hesitate before giving a boy a name synonomous with the ideal of male beauty. Might be a lot to live up to.

Hard name to carry around. Imagine Adonis with a serious acne problem.

I do not like this name. It sounds odd to me. I would never choose to name my child Adonis.

I love Adonis, pronounced "ah-Do-nis", "Addie" for short.

The Adonis I know pronounces it a-do-NEES. He's 1/2 Arabic.

You know what comes up when you search "Adonis" on google images? Greek statues and gay porn. Imagine the teasing!

(If you're going to give birth to an immortal, attractive man in the prime of his life, this is the perfect name. If you think you might be carrying a normal human being, I'd look for something with less of a reputation to live up to.)

I don't think it really matters what your soon will turn out looking like. Once the other kids find out the history of this name, they'll tease the poor thing relentlessly. Of course, if the boy happens to be a bit awkward, he'll be going through hell in school. Even I would laugh at someone having this over-the-top name.

An utterly pretentious name.
-- Sandcrawler  7/27/2008
This name sounds ridiculous on a real person. It makes me think of arrogant pretty boys. It's also too heavily attached to the Greek myth. I wouldn't recommend it.
