Awkward.

Honestly, I think it would be an awesomely cool name for a dog. (especially one with that may look as if it has a mustache)

I wouldn't be so pretentious as to use it on a human anymore. Though I do love Algy in The Importance of Being Earnest...the nickname is basically synonymous with pond scum. lol

I never think anything is too pretentious.
I LOVE Algernon...I think it might be in my top 10! Besides...I love dignified and pretentious sounding names.

I love...
Algernon Cecil (now THAT'S dignified. I'd go with that one)
Algernon Eustace
Algernon Francis
Algernon Gaspard
Algernon Perry
Algernon Thomas
Algernon Victor
Algernon William

What about the combo Algernon Percy? That's what I would use if not Algernon Cecil.

I like mustaches and pretentiousness; I like this name.
Yes, it is pretentious, but who care?

I like:
Algernon Cyril
Algernon David
Algernon Felix :)
Algernon Gaspard :)
Algernon Hugh
Algernon Matteo
Algernon Peter
Algernon Silas
Algernon Thomas

I really like it and don't think it sounds overly pretenious. It reminds me of two things, The Importance of Being Ernest, which is awesome, and Flowers for Algernon, which is a book I love but always makes me sad. I think it's a great name but would never use it personally.

Algernon David
Algernon Francis
Algernon Hugh
Algernon Hugo
Algernon Leo
Algernon Louis
Algernon Lucas
Algernon Matteo
Algernon Michael

Algernon Thomas
Algernon Victor
Algernon Vincent (Vincent Algernon would be awesome, though)
Algernon William

I like Algernon nn Algie, but that's mostly because I love Oscar Wilde. But it seems very silly to me, because in my head I always pronounce the first syllable very exaggeratedly. From what you've picked, I like

Algernon Clive
Algernon Cyril (More Oscar Wilde...)
Algernon Hugo
Algernon Victor

Of course it's pretentious, but it also happens to have the greatest meaning ever! I'd love to work this into a child's name, just so they could have "having a moustache" in their name.

Algernon Cyril

Algernon Gaspard
Algernon Louis
Algernon Perry
Algernon Philippe
