Edward or Albert?

So DC2 is definitely another boy. I am terrible with boys names but think we are down to these two and really like both. I am a bit worried Edward is getting really popular but I love Ted as a nickname. Also our surname starts with a W, and although its not as awkward as Edward Woodwood it still feels like a bit of a stumble to say. Albert / Albie would probably be my first choice but DS1 name starts with an A too and I think it nice to have a different initial. Am I over thinking this??? Any thoughts? Thanks! Smile

Love Edward, lots of possible short versions. Don't like Albert or Albie but think Bertie is cute though.

Oooh, I love both names, and both nicknames.

I think Albie is super lovely though.
