Terrible. They are so babyish. Fine for a baby. What about when he’s 50?

I dislike Archie. Albie (dislike the 'y' spelling) and Ernie are fine as nicknames for Albert, Ernest etc. They're sweet for a little boy, not so sure for a grown man - would be good to give him some options.

Ernie makes me think of the fastest milkman in the west song.

Archie from your list

All diminutives

This is the fourth Archie thread on here I have seen in less than 24 hours so I would say from that alone that it is rather liked.

Albie- lovely.
Archie- very popular. Not keen
Ernie- not keen

Edwin- nn Teddy or eddy or Winnie?

All cute but, and I'm always saying this here, I would give a full version of the name of their birth certificate, because there may be a time they'd prefer to be known by a name with more gravitas.

I don't mind Albie, Ernie would be fine as a NN for Ernest. Archie is a bit naff (sorry to all the Archie parents out there). I'm sure you'd dislike DD' name too.

They all seem like very cute nicknames to me.

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 28/11/2020 22:34

I don't really like any of them, sorry OP. Alby is the best of the bunch I guess, might make a cute nn for Albert.

Love Ernie and Archie
