Angus or Alvin

Angus has been the frontrunner for a while but recently discovered Alvin and we can't decide if we like it or not.

OP posts:

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Definitely Angus.

LassWiADelicateAir · 02/11/2018 22:34

Both awful but Alvin is considerably the worse of the 2.

DramaAlpaca · 02/11/2018 22:38

Angus by miles.

AlvinandthemotherfuckingChipmunks - beyond awful. My 7yo has recently come out of his Alvin ATC fog, thank goodness. If i had to hear I'm a Survivor murdered by some arse on helium one more time, i was going to set fire to Amazon prime!

Angus is a nicer name.

Love Angus. Dislike Alvin.... Calvin is cute though!

KatKit16 · 03/11/2018 15:16

Sorry I wouldn't choose either.

MikeUniformMike · 03/11/2018 15:31

I would go with Alvin

BlackBeltInChildWrangling · 03/11/2018 15:39

Lovely Angus, without a doubt, with Gus as a NN.

Alvin would just remind me of chipmunks and Mr Stardust. Nothing against those, but I wouldn't name one of my DSs after them!

Mummytoboyxx · 03/11/2018 17:42

What about Calvin as a compromise?

2128Cl · 03/11/2018 23:23

Not keen on either but Angus is better.

moredoll · 03/11/2018 23:24

Angus

allthegoodusernameshavegone · 03/11/2018 23:26

Alvin is terrible! Angus meh

Labradoodliedoodoo · 03/11/2018 23:27

Angus means you get Gus as a nickname

BikeRunSki · 03/11/2018 23:31

Angus is a fab name.
Alvin is both Mr Stardust and the irritating squeaky chipmunk to me.
