Lotus for a boy?????

I just found out on Mother's day that I am pregnant for the third time. The baby naming bug has already bitten my husband and myself. If we have a girl we already know that she will be named Caris. (It's a combo of my mom Carolyn who passed away and his mom Doloris.) For a boy my husband suggested Lotus. We both like the name but also know that it is typically used for girls. And yes, we know it means flower. On the other hand it is also the name of a sports car. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? We already have a boy and a girl, Justin and Marley.

Thank you to everyone for your advice regarding the name Lotus. I was totally unaware of the eastern religion thing and also the yoga/sex postion. I think we're back to the drawing board.

I love Caris... gorgeous name and the family connection is perfect. Lotus, not so much. Very feminine, doesn't go well with Justin and Marley.
