Oh gosh -spooky!So many same combination.My dgs1 is Finn and dgs2 is Edward!Edward was nearly George.

I think they're all lovely, see what suits him!

seeker · 06/11/2009 09:52

Edward. Fab name and TONS of lovely shortenings.

Or Edmund if you want to vary it.

tattycoram · 06/11/2009 09:52

I love them all. Joe's my favourite, but a close relative had already nabbed it. I also love Edward. DS was nearly Ed/Eddie/Ned. I still sometimes regret it.

Can't choose - love them all, but i do have a Samuel (only because the others had been taken)

Quads?

OrmIrian · 06/11/2009 09:47

Joe or Edward

ScummyMummy · 06/11/2009 09:45

Joe

teameric · 06/11/2009 09:45

George or Edward

Brightfield · 06/11/2009 09:37

The Edward NNs go really well with Finn.

Finn & Ted

Finn & Ned

Finn & Ed

Do names have to match anyway?

MissAnneElk · 06/11/2009 09:37

Joe would be my choice, but I also like Edward.

diddl · 06/11/2009 09:34

I like them all, but don´t think any go with Finn.

Jamieandhismagictorch · 06/11/2009 05:53

Samuel and Joe go best with Finn. I like Edward, but not George

Bellsa · 06/11/2009 03:38

Joe.

MrsKitty · 06/11/2009 03:10

Was going to say George, but think I prefer Edward with Finn.

alarkaspree · 06/11/2009 02:54

Edward

I'm off to bed in case it kicks off. I'll be back tomorrow and hope I'll have enough responses to create a robust pie chart of preferences
