I saw a new trending weird name list and Gatsby was on it. I immediately thought "The Great Gatsby" and I freakin' love that as a first name haha, seeing as Ashley (my name) is originally a surname.

Am I crazy or is that a legit cool name?

That's probably my favorite book of all time, but I'm not a fan of using Gatsby as a first name.
But like you said, Ashley used to be a surname, so maybe Gatsby will become more "normal" as a first name.

you like Gatsby as a name??? Uhm no.

Not my style but I don't think its crazy.

Quoting bloopbloop♥™:" you like Gatsby as a name??? Uhm no."

I'd never use it.
If I ever have a boy, I am naming him after my grandfather: Daniel

I wouldn't use it, but I think it's kinda neat.  

Nooooooooooo.

first thing that came to mind was Gas-baby. which is what I could see kids calling him/her.

It's awful!

Not a fan at all!

Not something I'd name my kid.

I can see the appeal from the feeling you get from it when you think about the book and the time period and such - but I do not think it translates well into real life.

Nope. We had to read the book in high school I thought it sucked.
