    It's time for Alphabet Sheep - Boys Names!!


    Contest is really simple, it's

    giphy.gif

    What I asked all you crazy peeps to do... All 39 of you, was:

    I will present to you a list of the letters of the alphabet and all you have to do is PM me back your list of 26 BOYS names, unnumbered.

    The aim is simple - to pick the most popular name alongside your fellow entrants.

    The person with the highest score at the end is the winner!

    So did you pick a Peter or a Paul?
    A Jacob or a Joseph?
    A Yusef or a Yankovich?
    (the above may or may not have been picked).

    We shall begin to find out - very soon. Approximately 8pm for those wanting me to be exact:)

    For now, get yourselves ready, pop on a cuppa, post some gifs and make some noise for Alphabet Sheep!!!

    Fair play for doing it... most take a lot of time monitoring it etc...
    Now, let’s see how bad I do this time :)

    Anywho - let's get started.

    So... as I said before we had 39 individual entries to this competition. Thankfully the sheepulator didn't overheat and did most of the work for me.

    Some of the entries have been combined if I adjudged them to be similar, abbreviated etc. Save your rash judgements of my scoring till post game :p

    For 'A' - we had 7 different names...

    Question is did you pick the top one? Here's some of the most popular ones:
