Current top runners for boys. Which do you prefer? Thanks.

Freddie every time

Neither.

Of the two, Charlie. Being old fashioned I'd want the more dignified Charles on the bc as I'm not a fan of diminutives as standalone names.

Definitely not Freddie, even if short for Frederick. It's such an unattractive name to me (sorry)

Freddie

Proud owner of a Freddie, but always loved Charlie too. I would say there are less Charlies around, so it depends if you’re bothered about popularity. Also, depends on your surname and which sounds best I think
