These will be the BC names. So please don't suggest Jacob, Edward, Edwin, Edgar, Theodore, etc. etc. Smile

I find Ted a bit faddy because of the increase in popularity of Teddy.

Therefore i will say Jake

I like Ted as a nn only so it would have to be Jake (which I don't really like)

How about you combine them and go with Jed? Wink

Seriously though, both are lovely, but I like Ted best.

Jake is so much nicer. Ted is an old man's name.

Jake all the way! Ted sounds cute when a baby but when older sounds silly. It just reminds me of big ted from playschool tv programme. Many years ago lol

I prefer Ted, OP.

Agree with SomethingAboutNothing, Jed is great !
Would choose Ted, over Jake though.

Jake. Simply because my 20 year old son is friends with a really lovely chap called Jake.
