Fraser.....but please spell it properly (loathe Frasier!)

Fraser, I love that name and I really don't like Fergus at all. I think the little brother in Clarissa was called Fergus maybe why I don't like it 😂

Definitely Fergus for me. I'm not that keen on surnamey names and I've known an irritating Fraser. My parents considered Fergus for my brother and would probably have used it if I had another brother, so I've grown up with the idea that it's a lovely name, and it's also a bit more unusual than Fraser where I live, and has the advantage that there are no common variant spellings (you might get Frazer but not Ferguz!)

Fraser!

Neither.
Fergus to me just sounds like fungus. Fraser should be a name for a werewolf.

I like both names. I remember when Gordon and Sarah Brown had their second son they called him Fraser at the suggestion of their other young son. Hate when it's spelt Frazer though.

Fergus without a doubt

I adore Fergus

@TheTeddyBears he was called Ferguson not Fergus

The sitcom is Frasier not Fraser.
I like both, with a slight preference for Fraser.
