His sister is Elizabeth.

So,

Edward and Elizabeth

or

George and Elizabeth?

Thank you!!!

George is a very pink and squidgy name to me.

It's been 30 years since I've seen Rainbow but the association is just too strong!

Edward is such a lovely name. I do like George but much prefer Edward.

You can nickname to Libby and Ted.

Not too matchy having same first initial, just don't follow suit with the family pets (which is what DH's family did).

Both are lovely names. I was going to say George, that was my initial instinct, but then I though Edward can also be Teddy/Ted which I love so I'm going to say EDWARD. Final decision Smile!

Edward

Elizabeth and Edward. Both names have loads of fab shortening so they'll probably end up with different initials for every day anyway.

Whichonetochoose · 06/11/2015 11:13

Thanks, everyone! We were also leaning towards Edward, my only concern was that both siblings names would begin with the same initial "E". The post confusion doesn't bother me, I am more worried that the same initial makes the names appear to "matchy" and that they don't go as well together as a result. Is it a valid concern or am I being silly?

Edward
There are loads of Georges and it's just a bit TOO regal with Elizabeth

Edward George sounds great.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 04/11/2015 20:37

Edward!

clarabellski · 04/11/2015 17:09

Another vote for Edward!

LizzieMacQueen · 04/11/2015 16:32

Edward

But surely it would be Elizabeth and Edward given that she came first.

CPtart · 04/11/2015 16:29

Edward (no nicknames)

ColdTeaAgain · 04/11/2015 16:27

Edward. One of the few names I wouldn't mind if shortened as I like Ed as well.

George and Elizabeth just sounds far too royal!

marmiteontoast76 · 04/11/2015 16:23

George

YakTriangle · 04/11/2015 16:22

Both are lovely, I think I slightly prefer Edward though. Smile

Edward - and I say that as someone who's maiden surname was George.
