My brother shot it down, and called it nerdy. I never thought it was nerdy. What is your opinion?

Times have changed though, and I actually have a friend who named her son Milo. I think that people have become a lot more open minded about names, and "nerdy" isn't really such a bad thing anymore. After all, it's "nerds" who keep this big thing called the Internet going.
