Name :  Angus

Boy's name of Scottish origin - mainly in the Highlands of Scotland. Comes from Aengus, Celtic God of Love. Angus is the anglicized form of the Scottish and Irish Gaelic name Aonghus. It is used both as a first name and surname. The name was popularised by the comic strip character which ran in the Scottish Daily Record - Angus Og. Although still fairly common in Scotland it has dropped in popularity in the rest of Britain and America.
Angus, situated on the east coast of Scotland, is an area of outstanding beauty. The rugged coastline opens into scenic glens and the fertile Valley of Strathmore.
