    Ultimately, Sengun may be a future HOFer, a quality starter, a solid rotation player, or a bust. But what is infinitely more important is that we have a reliable shorthand for referring to him in our overly impassioned and reactionary posts about him.

    Just this morning, I’ve seen Alpi, Alpy, Alps, and people like me typing out Sengun because I don’t know how to abbreviate it. I really don’t care what the answer is, but CF nation is all over the place right now.

    I will abide by the results of this poll.

    Turkish : Alpi

    English : Alpie

    Alpy does not fit. It is much closer to Alpay than Alperen.

    Alperen: Saint Knight
    Alpay : Moon Knight

    Choose Alpi or Alpie, not Alpy.

    Alp is natural , Alpi is nickname.
    Alp to Alperen is similar to Chris to Christian/Christopher. Short, not nickname.
