I think it's quite neutral and how often does one use their middle name anyway lol! Otis is super cool too.

OTIS (ōt′is) [Acronym from Organization of Teratology Information Specialists]
A nonprofit organization that provides information about potential health risks during pregnancy and lactation.

And what the word is most used for....
Cancrum otis: an erosive ulcer of the cheek and lip resulting from poor hygiene. It was often seen in young children and could be fatal as it led to gangrene of the facial tissues. Synonyms: canker, water canker, noma, gangrenous stomatitis, gangrenous ulceration of the mouth.

I actually agree. I'm not in the medical field but when I read it, it made me think of an ear infection (I know its different but close enough). It's not really relevant though which is why i didn't write a reply when I initially read it as the O.P didn't invite opinions on the first name. From what I read she's more concerned about the middle name.

Ekkk well that totally blew up. Not interested in the opinions of the first name. Thanks all the same. It was the middle name i was more intrested. The first first name will be Otis even if its a term used in the medical field im not sure how many people would actually refer to the child as a medical term. Thanks for all the great insight tho.

I thought it was slightly feminine so I asked hubby and he said definitely feminine. I think it sounds nice but I would avoid a feminine sounding name for a son. Could you mix it up slightly differently?

Actually no neither. Just a general question, it rolls off the tounge for both my hubby and i and no one else knows of our ideas just getting others opinions. Like i said we have unusal names anyway. Thanks O.P
