Arlo. Sid's horrible... At best Vicious, and at worst well SIDS.

Arlo

FurCoatAndNaeKnickers · 12/02/2015 00:28

I prefer Arlo

londonkiwi · 12/02/2015 09:38

Arlo by a long way!

WestEast · 12/02/2015 09:40

Neither sorry.

Sophronia · 12/02/2015 09:49

Sid but only if it's short for Sidney.

Aprilbaby24 · 12/02/2015 09:52

Not keen on either sorry ??

littlesupersparks · 12/02/2015 09:54

Arlo is very popular. I also vote Sidney

gruffallosfriend · 12/02/2015 10:25

I like Sidney!

Sid

sebsmummy1 · 12/02/2015 10:44

It's a neither from me.

LemonYellowSun · 12/02/2015 10:48

I know a couple of Sids. An eight year old and someone in their 20s. I like it.

sonniebonnie · 12/02/2015 11:13

If I had to choose, then Arlo.

TempsPerdu · 12/02/2015 12:00

Arlo, if I had to pick one. It's quite nice but currently very 'hipster-trendy' and in danger of dating badly I think. Sid is dreadful - just not a nice sound.

Jackieharris · 12/02/2015 12:10

Arlo

WhyHasTheGinGone · 12/02/2015 12:24

Arlo, definitely.

BlueStarsAtNight · 12/02/2015 13:19

Sid as a nn for Sidney. I really dislike Arlo.

squoosh · 12/02/2015 13:53

They're both very 'now' and I'm having trouble deciding which I prefer.

twinjocks · 12/02/2015 22:02

Sid

Hassled · 12/02/2015 22:02

Sid

SlinkyB · 12/02/2015 22:04

Neither.

VainVulva · 12/02/2015 22:12

Arlo 100% fabulous'

toobreathless · 12/02/2015 22:41

Arlo I find a bit too 'middle class trying to be different'

Sid fabulous as a shortening for Sidney.

Allalonenow · 12/02/2015 22:48

Arlo is fab!

SnoringNorma · 13/02/2015 00:39

Arlo is great. Sid just grates.
