About the name
Atlas is Greek — from tlenai, "to endure, to bear" — the Titan condemned to hold up the sky, whose name became the word for both a book of maps and the vertebra that carries the human head.
Atlas has surged into the American top 150, the flagship of the mythological-name wave — parents choosing strength that carries rather than conquers.
The name holds worlds by definition. It pairs well with soft middles (Atlas James, Atlas Rune) that lighten the load. On our vibe map it is Mythological load-bearing wall with Celestial ceiling — the name that literally means holding up the sky.
