[Opinions] Axelius
I came up with Axelius while trying to think of a name that could have Axel as a nickname, and it has really grown on me. Do you think it would be usable for a real child or should I just keep it on my guilty pleasure list?

I kept reading it as Alexius at first...It's cool. I'd say middle name or GP (or character-- this is dramatic enough to be a superhero/supervillain type name).

GPIt sounds like the name of a muscle. And anyway, since I'd pronounce it ax-EEL-ee-us, Axel isn't a very natural nickname. Axel is good by itself.

Just use Axel. It's complete on its own; it doesn't need to be a nickname for something else. Axelius sounds like a ferocious gladiator to me. One who'd rip throats out with his teeth, if that's what it took to win. It's kinda cool, but I think it's more of a GP.

Axelius is a Swedish surname, and I think it should stay that way. Just use Axel instead.
