This is the name I chose for my son. Upon first hearing it, many people express dismay and confusion, but once people get used to it, they really seem to like it. In Poland, Urban is a surname. It is sentiment of many in my culture (Highlanders of Poland's Tatra Mountains) that this name is often used to describe someone with big ears.

In my opinion, this is an extremely strange and unusual name, in English at least, anyway. :/
