[Opinions] Re: Amadeus
in reply to a message by Hola123
It's so strongly tied to Mozart for me that I can't quite see using it in real life, but I do like it very much. Mozart's birth name was actually Gottlieb, which has the same meaning in German (that man had a lot of names, he was born Johannes Chrysostom Wolfgang Gottlieb or some such monstrosity...). I think it's all-boy, and Amadeus Rene is a little heavy on the religious connotations, but a good-sounding name if you're okay with the baggage. As for nn, "Dey" is the best I can come up with.
As a teenager I had a triplet set in my head with Amadeus, Gottlieb and Theophilus as the middle names, haha.
ETA: I cannot believe that Chrysostom isn't in the database! Anglicans say the brief prayer of St Chrysostom every darn Sunday morning. And it was one of Mozart's names!
