    I've never heard it used as a first name (I'm sure it has been, I just don't know anyone with it) but I think it's very cute! It sounds like a name that, even if it weren't a last name or a Yankees player, would soon be entering the list of new/trendy (not trendy in a negative way) names being used.

    It's easy to say, very masculine, and not one of those "out there" names...go for it!
