We love both but can't decide... I prefer Edward but don't like the nn's; I do like Charlie though...

Edward (no need for a nickname if you don't want one).

OMG

Another vote for Edward.
But be prepared for him to be called Ed or Eddie, might become out of your control!

Both lovely strong names.

Charles!

Edward is best. Charlie is very popular lots and lots of them around. That may not bother you.

MelinaM · 26/11/2010 19:33

well... this virtually never happens does it??!? everyone agreeing on a name thread lol

meandjoe · 26/11/2010 20:47

Edward definitely.

ShoppingDays · 26/11/2010 20:50

I do like Charles but not just Charlie without Charles as full name.

MrTeapot207 · 26/11/2010 20:50

Firstly, thank you all for your comments. Edward is looking the strong favourite so far!
Secondly, 'That'llDoPig' - best nickname I've ever seen (watched 'Babe' last week!) Actually laughed out loud!

KatieS - I love it as it's DS's 2nd name.

Hedwig3 · 27/11/2010 21:01

Charles... easily!

SO many baby Edwards where I live, also I always hear 'Deadwood', but, I know, that is just me! Blush
