Edwin, thoughts?

Just wondering what people think of the name Edwin? It's a family name so and DH would like it for a middle name as a tradition, but thinks it's maybe too obscure/old fashioned to be a first name and would prefer something more common, but I really like it and think it's a great first name.

My friend's one year old is named Edwin. It's a lovely name.

Absolutely wonderful!

Old fashioned/obscure names are very cool these days though! And I've seen lots of people suggest Edwin as something slightly different to Edward, so I think a lot of people quite like it.

It's a great name, an understated classic Smile
