Promise this will be my last question for a while, haha. It's been so helpful so thank you all!

Regardless of full name, if we call our son by the name Gus, what does it bring to mind?

I'm not personally a fan of the name gus as it reminds me immediately of the word gusset 🙈

I suppose secondary to this is Augustus... As in Gloop... Again, not great! Sorry!
