Teddy? Edan? Luke? Jack?

Just found out we're having a boy after the sonographer pointed out the "optional extras"! Was convinced it was a girl!

Teddy would be christened Edward to give him the choice of a more formal name (although I'm not madly keen on Edward). Could be Ted at school.

I like Edan as I'm half Irish but worry its too unisex. Too much room for teasing?

DP likes Luke......but its a bit wishy washy for me.

Jack has been my favourite for years but is so popular and passe perhaps.

Surname is Brooks.

Thanks SilkStalkings. Great name!

Edan pronounved "Ee-dun" ...similar to Eden with emphasis on the E. It's a version of the celtic Aidan....which just doesn't do it for me.

DP not keen on Edmund and Edwin is just a bit too old man like in my opinion.

Never heard Edan before - how is it pronounced? First thoughts are cheese not unisex.
Love Teddy for Edward. How about Edmund or Edwin?
