pronounced like "Antoine," often spelled "Antwan"

This latter part of your response is the way I know the name, and I have several Black male students with this name.

Whether the boy is called "Aunt-Wayne," or "Aunt-Juan," either way the name is androgynous and ought to be avoided.

BTW whites ought to stop calling boys "Troy" or "Tracy" for the same reason. "Trey" is unforgivable on a birth certificate, but is permissible as a nickname, only if the child is a "three-sticker"=child given the same name as his father AND grandfather...
