We've finally managed to narrow down our list and arr deciding between either of these first names for our son, due this month. Middle name is John. Which first name do you prefer, Edward or Alexander, which sounds more classic to you? Thank you in advance!

Alexander for sure! Edward is also nice though so you can’t go wrong…

Edward but I think that Teddy is overused. Dislike Ned. Ed/Eddy/Eddie are fine

Love both! We called our first Edward and just had DD2, Alexander would have been the name we chose had she been a boy.
Edward has more nicknames if that's a point.

They're both classic names. I personally wouldn't use either because they're both so common.

Of the two I prefer Alexander, better nickname options, including AJ which is both cute for a baby and cool for a teen.
