Thought we'd found perfect boy's name - now not so sure...

DH and I thought we had the perfect boy's name for us in Edward. Both love it, it works well with our surname, and we can live with the probable nn and shortenings. Sadly, just told a friend and her response was "Oh, like Twilight?"

Having not really done the Twilight thing, I hadn't even thought of that! Do you think the name's been totally usurped by glittery-skinned vampires or can we still get away with it?

Don't give it another thought, it is a lovely classic name, which far predates, and will far outlive, twilight.

Goodness me, I wouldn't worry about that. Edward is a lovely name, just go ahead with it.
