It's cute and dorky, with an outrageously over the top frilly full name, how could I say no? I love this name even though I had a really creepy uncle
Gus. I also like
Gussie for a girl, it's so satisfyingly Dickensian.
I'd call a pet
Gus for sure, it works on a wide variety of creatures great and small. I love the nonsense nickname "Gustopher".
