Its very difficult to be macho while wearing a plaid, double breasted coat, but I will vote Troggs. I had thought the Turtles had more hits, but I must have been confusing them with the Animals, or cosidering them a part thereof.

Not sure how many hits either had. And not real familiar with what hits each did have. And both have a guy in plaid double-breasted.
So voting strictly on names here. Trogg is def machoier sounding than Turtles.

Kat - I think you voted for the Troggs because your a "Wild Thing", despite your fondness of Taurus station wagons and Italian scooters. '.

Flo and Eddie from the turtles went on to join The Mothers of Invention. They are legit.

OK, I gotta admit I actually REMEMBER listening to BOTH groups on the Motorola "Golden Throat" radio in my 1950 Chevy... Seems the Troggs were a little more "guttural" and testosterone-oriented in their music, while the Turtles were more "saccharine-sweet" though not quite "Partridge Family"...
So I vote for the Troggs.
Back in the 1960's we were amazed at how the Brit guys could wear girlie haircuts, doofus suits with Nehru jackets and short pants, "Beatle boots" and STILL come off as masculine. Musta been a little James Bond DNA in 'em... LOL!
Besides, "Troggs" sounds a little "Stone-Age" or "Cave Man" and those dinosaur-thumpers were definitely "macho"... I wonder if they ever wore "Mullets"... HeHeHe...

Down in Monterey.
