It's the name poll!

Abdul has a relative, an uncle or something, named Cupid. Every time I hear this, I remember the guy I knew at PS 188 named Eros.

So...

Which is worse? Cupid-rhymes-with-stupid or Eros-rhymes-with-gross? Or the classic Jeremy-sounds-like-germy?

As far as I'm concerned Eros does not rhyme with gross or to the extent it does, it's a very weak rhyme. I'd be upset to see it used in a poem. But Cupid does rhyme with stupid, so I suppose that is worse.
