Would you laugh at someone named Achilles or Kostas?

I LOVE both of these names and also, Kostas is a name that runs in my greek family and I would like to keep the culture running through my children as well.
I also really love the name Achilles (Ah-kil-eez) because I have always beem fascinated by the famous warrior in ancient Greece .
The only matter is that I don't want my son to be made fun of because of his name, and the last thing I'll do is give my son a name that half the American population has like: Andrew, Josh, Zach,or John.
AKA: Ii'm not pregnant, but I just want to know for future reference :)
Be completely honest.
Thanks!
 
i do undestand not naming him something ordinary but i do think he will have a hard time whith those names i think maybe using them as a middle name t keep them running in the family
 
Kostas is a good name, I wouldn't laugh at it.

But I will say that I don't think Achilles is a good name because once others around him learn about the Greek story and how he had a weakness it might not sound so high and mighty anymore and he might get made fun of.
