Not looking for opinions on the name.

Just wondering if I can?

I thought you were talking about a brand of vacuum cleaner or something for a second. Sorry OP!

Hate all other Ed names.

It is clunky, sorry!

I personally wouldn't.

If I really wanted an Ed name, I'd probably go with Edwin.

There's Edmund too. I don't like it myself, but just putting ideas out there.

It sounds like a character from a steampunk story to me, and I'd assume you were really hoping he'd grow up to be an inventor or engineer.

it doesn't flow very well IMHO, a bit clumsy

A bit clunky and clumsy.

Ed Stevenson, Eddie Stevenson, Edward Stevenson all sound great.

Bear2014 · 20/06/2017 17:03

Edward way nicer too 👍

We have a 'son' name as well and have ruled all those names out, so no.

Syc4moreTrees · 20/06/2017 17:00

I was just thinking kids aren't very often referred to by their full name anyway so why worry

MargotLovedTom1 · 20/06/2017 16:55

Eddie Stevenson sounds way better.

disneykid · 20/06/2017 16:54

I think the double 'son' is a bit much but if you like it then why not?

Aquamarine1029 · 20/06/2017 16:53

It's quite a mouthful. Doesn't flow very well.

Syc4moreTrees · 20/06/2017 16:52

why not?
