I used to know an Aristotle who was part Greek. He usually went by Aris, which works better in everyday life. I like Aris more than Aristotle. Aristotle is a little too heavy sounding for me.
Apparently, Aristotle isn't unusual in Greece, so if I ran into someone Greek named Aristotle, I wouldn't be all that surprised. In the States, I think it would work better as a middle name or if someone went by a nickname like Aris.
