Naming a baby is so hard!! I think we have agreed on Eden nn Edie for girl however there's no boys names that I love.
Names I like but can't use for one reason or another are Oscar, Hugo, Freddie Arthur and Alfie. If I like them what else am I likely to like?

If you're going to call a girl Edie day to day, how about something that's a bit more of a 'proper' girls' name, such as Edith? I'm just really not sure I'd thank you for Eden on my birth cert if I were your dd.

I much prefer Eden to Edith but thank you anyway. All those boys names are nice but I just can't imagine naming my child them, whereas when we heard Eden we loved it straight away!

I know a male Eden, I think it's unisex, so if you like it a lot, use it.

Casper
Samuel
Adam
Albert (Bertie)

Ethan's nice, LOVE Albert/Bertie but I know DH won't. I've never heard of Eden for a boy, I'll suggest it too. What's people's thoughts on Jesse for a boy?

I would think that Edie could get mispronounced as Edd-ie as in a nickname for Ed.

I've always loved Jesse but clashes awful with my surname.

I'm not all that terribly keen on Jesse but it's quite nice, just wouldn't be my favourite.

I was going to suggest Albert, but Jesse is really nice too.

I absolutely love Eden. I may just be ever so slightly biased though 😚

I've heard of Male Eden's too but for me, it's a girly name

My son is called Eden. I love it.

My other son is Reuben, how about Xavier or Raphael?
