OK - my DS was born 2 weeks ago and is called Edward. I thought his nickname would be Eddie and my DH thought it would be Woody.
I think Woody sounds rude (as in erection) and awfully middle class. However whilst I was in hospital he and my DD were calling him Woody and it seems to have stuck.
I am used to calling him Woody now in the home but find it hard to introduce him as this to others.
Does anyone else know any Wooody's (other than Zoe Ball's!) and what are your thoughts?
To be fair my DH hardly asks for anything and has said it I really don't like it will can call him another nn - however he does not like Eddie as it reminds him of old men.
I know he should have discussed this more before he was born but I thought he knew my views.
Thank you!
