Then why not start by changing your own name to one very "non-name"? You say it means bean farmer in Latin - but I`d say that Latin isn`t exactly a language in popular use. Why not change your name to "Beanfarmer" (or the equivalent in your local language)? It would be a very interesting experiment in gauging the true reactions of society to a non-name.
Society WILL react in a way you do not want it to if you give your child a very abnormal name. Creativity is fine, you don`t have to name your children the most popular names of the year... But "Astronomical" or "HeavenlyBody" are definitely far beyond the line of mere creativity.
Someone brought up "Apple" as a name... That is fairly inane, and is not all that far from "Peach" and "Cherry" which are accepted commonly as names. And yet - the name Apple is memorable. Why? Because it is a non-name. The effect will be MUCH worse with something like "Astronomical".
If anyone is trying to find me… Tamyuun on Instagram is probably the easiest.
