technically, no. Atlas was not condemned to that fate. He willingly took that up to spare his brothers a lighter consequence. As well as the fact that he is named that, it isn't why he was.

Atlas is Greek, which means "To Carry". He was named that because of the fact he carried the weapon title for the others.
