HelpRe: Gustav
in reply to a message by Eden
1. How would you automatically pronounce Gustav? - GOOSE-tav
2. Does it sound too ethnic for an American child? (our last name is Dutch - Van Hook)- I don't think it seems too ethnic on its own, but with your surname it might. Do you have any Germanic connections? If so, it might be alright.
3. Do you at all like it? - I like Gustav, but I don't really like Gus. I would probably use Tavo-another name that I really like!
4. Can you think of any alternatives? - I think Augustus is amazing! It would go really well with your other children's names too. If only your husband would reconsider!
