Otto is a side character in the kids game "Pajama Sam: No Need To Hide When It's Dark Outside". He is a boat that refuses to go into the water because he is afraid he will sink.
I really like this name, it’s a very handsome and sturdy palindrome name! But I didn’t really fall in love with it until I was thinking of nicknames and I thought…Toto. I’m obsessed. I think a little boy called Toto would be the actual cutest thing ever! I love when a really strong and masculine name has a cute, fun nickname for when he’s little, it melts my heart! Hannah or Anna or Colette/Coco could be cute sister names.

The name Otto makes me think of a complete stoner\drug-user. I just can not get past that association I built up in my mind. It also makes me think of the word "Auto" as in Automobile and the company, 'Auto zone' * hums *Get in the zone, auto\Otto zone".

I really like this name. Just reading the other commenter's comments - it's funny how accent can totally change the impression a name makes. In the American accent, I suppose Otto really does sound like "auto".

This name sounds crappy in American pronunciation, and it also sounds quite annoying in other languages. I can't get the image of the school bus driver on the Simpsons out of my head.
