What does the name Gus bring to mind? (Last one from me, I promise!)

Promise this will be my last question for a while, haha. It's been so helpful so thank you all!

Regardless of full name, if we call our son by the name Gus, what does it bring to mind?

Gus, the road sweeper from Eastenders

Recess.

Honeybun

Augustus Gloop or Boris Johnson

Glad i’m not the only one who thinks Gus from Cinderella 😀

Discount catalogue shop we had in the town I grew up in. Great universal stores.

Gus is the cat at the theatre door, his name as I ought to have told you before, is really Asparagus but that’s such a fuss to pronounce that I usually call him just Gus (TS Elliot)

Augustus Gloop. Not a flattering name.

Polar bear in Central Park zoo who was depressed. Also featured in trgically Hip song. 'Whats troubling Gus?' Sad really so I would think of him:(

Me too. Gus Gus.

One of our cars is called Gus (yes, we name our cars 🚗).

I'm imagining an older man in red trousers who could be an old school Tory mp, but if it was a kid I'd think quite an original name, probably comes from Islington.

Well i have a 6ft 4 dc called Angus but always has gone by Gus. I still absolutely love it and he has never ever been bullied for his name and he is quite a sensitive lad.

Gussie Finknottle ( PG Wodehouse)

Or next door's cat.

One of the mice from Cindarella! I don't dislike it though!

That was my first thought too - he was a prince in disguise (I think) and Kiki called him Fussy Gussy.

Gus Fring, international meth manufacturer, from Breaking Bad.

This was my first thought but it's very old song.

As a nn for Augustus it's ok

Nothing really, I’m in Scotland so Gus as a shortening for Angus isn’t at all uncommon

Reminds me of gusset.

Gustavo Hamer, but I’m a Sheffield United fan.

Came to say this.
@BlueBlueGreenBlue I think that I may love you.

Also Gus Honeybun which probably doesn’t mean a lot to most people.

I like the name Gus.

Ha, same, fellow south westerner! A great day when he read out my birthday message 😀.

I know two - one is Angus and the other is a Mexican called Gustavo, goes by Gus. I really like it.
