The boy's name Angus \a-ngus, an-gus\ is pronounced ANG-guss. It is of Celtic origin, and its meaning is "one choice". Scottish: Anglicised form of the Gaelic name Aonghus or Aonghas. Celtic mythology: Angus Og is a god of attractive traits such as humor and wisdom. Also the name of an eighth-century Pictish king known as Onnust or Hungus. In America, the name tends to be associated with breeds of cattle such as the Black Angus. Pet form Angie is pronounced 'AN-ghee' in Scottish, representing Gaelic Angaidh.

Angus has 6 variant forms: Aengus, Angie, Anngus, Ennis, Gus and Gussie.
We like Gus, and it's Hungarian form Guszti.
