The Saju view
Counted by its first sound, Atticus is an earth name, since that sound is made with an open throat and a soft breath. The sound of Atticus belongs to earth, the element of grounding and reliability. A chart short on earth is the one that gains most from such a name. Because earth feeds metal in the cycle of generation, Atticus can also help a chart that is short on metal, though less directly. A chart that already holds plenty of earth is better served by another name, since Atticus would add to it.
