I don't know what chav means but yes it is quite popular. Not my cup of tea, sounds a bit like a doll's name to me.

Chav - rather rude

I think you mean popular

Agree with Drama - 'overused' and 'chav' (which generally doesn't go down well here as a description) are two entirely different things...

Not at all IMO.

Don't think so. I think it's lovely, and I'm not chavvy

EldonAve · 02/07/2010 08:34
