Edmund or Jude?

The two names we have shortlisted at the moment are:

Jude Benjamin
Edmund Benjamin

Which do you prefer?

Benjamin as a middle name is non-negotiable but for the first name we're looking for something quite traditional, classic, but that's not too popular. We also like Biblical names. So any other suggestions that might fit the bill would be welcome!

Jude is far nicer. Don't really like Edmund, reminds me of Blackadder.

I don't love either of them

Jude is a bit dated (very 2000) and Edmund is a bit stuffy

How about Lawrence, Hugo, Miles or Duncan?

Benjamin as first name!

Benjamin Edmund ❤️

I don't like Edmund, so I'd chose Jude. However, I think Benjamin is a lovely name so would chose that as a first name!

Jude

Love Jude and it goes best with middle name Benjamin. I’m not keen on Edmund as a first name, seems a bit stuffy in comparison.

Other suggestions:

Joseph
James
Joshua
