What Guys' First Names Say About Them

An extremely unscientific conversation. Sorry, Trevors.

"Alexs are nice. Too nice."

"I can attest to too nice."

"Oh god, Anthonys are creeps."

"Fuck an Anthony, they can get out. Meaning do not fuck them, I mean they can always go away forever."

"I think Anthony, I think sexually harassing boss."

"Anthonys are college students who date girls in high school."

"I feel like Bens are down to earth."

"OK, can we talk about B.J. and P.J.? Because I think P.J.s are super, super hot but B.J.s are gross."

"R.J. and T.J. are both horrible people."

"I like R.J. but I generally think 'not ever going to ever have a 401(k) if you're referring to yourself by initials."

"I don't like P.J. because then you are going to end up calling him Peej."

"Peej."

"Or BEEJ."

"Ewwwwwwwww."

"What about A.J., though?"

"A.J.s are sweet."

"A.J.s won't take you to a nice dinner."

"Brendan vs. ..."

"Weirdos."

"Brendan = hot, Brandon = ew."

"Brian > Bryan."

"Bryans are just Canadian."

"Bryans have bad hair."

"Calebs are cute but too earnest."

"Carls are cute dorks and Karls are sexy boneheads."

"The only nickname as a real name I like is Charlie because Charlies are the best!"

"Charlie is good."

"I find Charlies attractive but heartbreaking."

"Charlies are great."

"Chets are dirty and disrespectful."

"OMG, there is literally nothing worse than a Chet, except for a Blaise."

"Chris = awful, but ChrisTOPHER is A+."

"Chrises think they know everything."

"Chrises are horndogs."

"They think pretty highly of themselves."

"But yes, Christophers are dreamy."

"But naive."

"But can be pretentious."

"You can take Christopher for a RIDE."

"WHAT ABOUT CHRIS MESSINA, THOUGH?"

"Here's the thing: There are exceptions. But, like, I feel like he IS probably a horndog? He's just an exceptionally attractive one, so who's complaining."

"Is there anyone worse than a Conner?"

"Fucking Conner/Conors."

"Yeah, fuck a Connor. NOT literally."

"Self-righteous."

"Craigs are trouble."

"Craigs are the worst."

"Greg is not as hot."

"I've never met a Gregory, only a Greg, which is too guttural."

"Everyone wants a Gregory."

"Harry is the guy I want to date but there's just no chemistry."

"Harry = human equivalent of sheepdog."
