What is the possessive for name Atlas?

The possessive form of "Atlas" is Atlas's.

Here's why:

* Singular nouns ending in "s" generally add "'s" to form the possessive.

* However, some style guides recommend using just an apostrophe (') for proper nouns ending in "s" to avoid awkwardness.

So, both "Atlas's" and "Atlas'" are considered correct, but "Atlas's" is the more traditional form.
