Atlas

Atlas is a name that originates from Greek mythology. In the ancient stories, Atlas was a Titan who was punished by Zeus and condemned to hold up the heavens on his shoulders for eternity.

The name Atlas is derived from the Greek word 'atlantes', which means 'the bearer'. This reflects the mythological figure's role as the bearer or holder of the celestial spheres.

While Atlas was originally a masculine name, it has gained popularity in recent years as a gender-neutral or even feminine name choice. Some parents may be drawn to the name's association with strength, endurance, and the idea of bearing a great burden or responsibility.

Others may simply appreciate the unique sound and mythological connection of the name Atlas, which can be seen as a bold and distinctive choice for a child.
