Other ds is Milo (tweenies and hot chocolate I know) and I think they both go quite nicely. Which do you prefer?

Ugh I don't understand the popularity of Magnus at all! I really don't think it sounds nice I'm. Reminds me of Magnum as well.

Marley is a fantastic name ❤

Marley is the dog in "Marley and Me"

Magnus is great - but the hero in a series of Rick Riordan books

With the nick name guss

Magnus
Was on my list both times. Fabulous name

My friend's got a dog called Marley, so I wouldn't be keen on that. And Magnus means "big". Is he big?

Magnus

DramaAlpaca · 01/08/2018 22:42

Definitely Magnus.

kenandbarbie · 02/08/2018 08:39

I think they're both a bit too similar. Unless you use Gus for Magnus.

Greycat11 · 02/08/2018 08:42

I went go school with a Magnus and his brother Mungo.
I prefer the name Marley though

MuggledOff · 02/08/2018 08:46

I thought Marley was a girl's name! I know a few little girls called this.

KiplingAngelCake · 02/08/2018 16:44

Magnus definitely

You can't have Milo and Marley, far too samey.

Magnus is pretty bad, I really don't understand the appeal outside of the Nordic countries (here it's basically the equivalent of Gary or Ian). But it's the better option of the two by far.

Magnus. Marley is the dog or Bob Marley but mostly the dog Grin.

Magnus is fantastic, Marley is there horrible (sorry)
