DH and I are going through boy names and he loves Fergus, aka fergie, gus, fergs. I like it but I'm not 100% because I've never heard of anyone who I've come across with that name! Is it too old fashioned? Thanks

Love it and hoping Dais isn't going to use it next month! I know only one and he's handsome and smart and lovely.

I know a GORGEOUS Labrador retriever called Fergus but I think it's also nice for a boy

I love it. I have a very lovely very friend called Feargus (Irish spelling, I think). Uncommon, but not weird or difficult to pronounce.

I love it. It may get more popular soon due to the Outlander effect!

I have only ever known one. Scottish family. Love it! Not Fergie though. (Association with dodgy deals and toe sucking!)

I love it. I know a 10 year old Fergus, and he's one of the nicest kids I know.

I love it too. It would have been dd's name had she been a ds.

I love it. Not the nicknames, though. Would have to stay as Fergus.
