Sounds like some sort of fad 'health' drink or something. 😆

Why on earth not? You can’t be the only special person who knows who Tony Hancock, one of Britain’s most celebrated comedians, is.

Mr Snuffleupagus' first name is Aloysius?? Who knew!

I like it. I think Lou can be the short version of it

Are you drunk dear? tilts head

Fucking terrible name

Aloysius Gonzaga was an Italian aristocrat who became a Jesuit priest.
He died aged 23 after helping plague victims in Rome, he contacted the disease himself.
He was beatified in 1605.

Evelyn Waugh used the name Aloysius in the novel Brideshead Revisited, Aloysius was Sebastian Flyte’s teddy bear.
Waugh had visited Stonyhurst school, a Jesuit boarding school in Lancashire, as a young man and eventually sent his sons there.
Stonyhurst was the Alma Mater of the Earl of Brideshead in the novel.

Our sons went to the school and amongst the community there Aloysius would not be thought of as an odd name.

St Aloysius was a good man and I think are worse names out there (Jayden) so don’t be put off!

Had I not read Brideshead and had the connection with school I would not have had a clue how to spell it! :)

Ha ha! I remember that. Love Tony Hancock.

Of course not. But how many people know the first of his middle names? Lighten up, won't you?

Very popular name at my DC's primary school. We had lots of really interesting names from different countries and cultures. I like it because of its history, but you do have to spell names properly IMO because the child has to live with it.

Reminds me of that scene in Mary Poppins

I love the name Aloysius. It was on my list but DH wouldn't budge.

It's the name of the nasty lead weasel in Wind of the Willows so would always make me think of that.

This reminds of a woman I have as friend of friend on Facebook.
She wanted to name her child after Lucius Malfoy from Harry Potter, but she has spelled it Luscious. He'll spend his whole life correcting people.

Alowicious isn't ready for his jel-heh

Luscious 😆😆😆

Im singing that French nursery rhyme "Aloysious, gentil Aloysius"...!

Would be a great middle name. If the first name were Supercalifragilisticeexpi.

Awesome name.

Not unless you are Anthony Hancock!

I encountered an Aloysius in a book I read as a child (no idea what it was) and spent the entire book pronouncing it 'ALLOY-see-us' in my head.

I met someone called Leeham this morning. Pronounced Liam I presume.
