GAIUS

1. Does having "gai" in it make it unusable, even though it's not prounounced like Gaylord or Galen?

2. Will it surge in popularity because of Battlestar Galactica, even though the character is so unsavory? Will anyone care or know that it was also Julius Caesar's first name?

3. In terms of its Latin origin, this is really the same name as Caius. Which do you like?

4. WDYT of the name?

My opinion: I love the sound and the idea of this name, but I don't think I'd be able to shake how pretentious it seems.

I prefer Caius. I just don't really like the sound G makes very much. Caius just sounds nicer to me. Otherwise, I think Gaius a nice name. I don't think it's pretentious, personally. And I don't see Gai as being a problem. If someone chooses to tease a kid based on that, they're pretty lame, lol. That's just weak. And last, I know nothing about Battlestar Galactica.

Thanks!

(and, to do a bit of promotion: Battlestar Galactica is the only TV show I watch, and let me tell you, it's pretty darn good ;) )
