BlueChampagne · 22/02/2017 13:37

Charles/Charlie would go well with Freddie.

I like Oliver, Aaron, Harry, Jake, he really liked Edward but I don't want him to be called Eddie which I know he more than likely will be I didn't think it would be harder to choose a name second time round.

Harry is cool !

dustarr73 · 24/02/2017 22:28

Ye Eddie and Freddie sound like twins which is grand.Except they are not.

Maybe have a shortlist,but sometime babies surprise you by not looking like their name.Ds3 done this,looked nothing like the name i picked.Few days later he has his name.Just kept popping on our heads.And its a perfectly nice name,just wasnt on our radar.

Luke
Bertie

Aaron and Harry are both lovely. May not bother you but I know hundreds of Olivers and Harrys. I agree with you that Edward/Eddie sounds bad with Freddie.

Alexander

dustarr73 · 24/02/2017 22:56
