| I knew a kid with this name growing up. His brother was also named after a constellation. Nice kids, but of course they got made fun of for having weird names. Don't do it, OP. Sounds like you're trying too hard to be original at your kid's expense. |

I've taught 2 Orions. Neither was black. Both were from hippy families. |

| I know an Orian, but she does not pronounce it like the constellation. Closer to Or-e-an. Works for her. |

It was on my baby list, but we didn't use it.
We're pretty hippy and pretty nerdy, though. |

| Chris Noth's kid's name. Works on him, but he's a movie star's kid after all. |
