Knox is one of those names that looks really cool in print, but sounds pretty bad on real people. So it's a name I'd only use for a character in a story.
I associate the name with old-money and family names passed down for generations (especially if the family name started as someone's surname). This association is likely due to the fact that one of my favorite movies is "Dead Poets Society," and one of the main characters is named Knox Overstreet.
Which has to be one of the worst names ever. I mean... Knocks Over Street. Who does that to their child?! lol
