Theo for short, I do dislike the name / nickname Teddy so that does put me off personally.

Another Theo joins the world. I think it may be the Josh of 90s!

I think Theo is a beautiful name but it’s just far too popular now

Makes me think of Theodore Upton unfortunately and he is someone I wouldn't want to be reminded of!

I can only read it with a Caribbean accent. "Tee-o-dorr "!
