Help needed! Only really have Edward so far. Would love some other ideas!

We also had Lachlan on our shortlist, but I think I've gone off it as I think pronunciation issues may arise?

We've got an Edward, though so far he's usually an Eddie. I think Eddie has been cute while he's little. As he grows up he's using Ed a bit more, and I think that's a good name for a young man. DH sometimes calls him "The edge" too, especially as middle name James (EJ)

And if he ever wants to be a bit grander he can go for the full "Edward" - A real English name too, and one everyone knows, yet we don't come across too many ! Also all those cute teddy/ Winnie the pooh references (Edward bear)

Lots to recommend it! Glad most posters like it too ! Room for a few more I'm sure if I've encouraged anyone Smile

Edward is lovely - baby Eddie... soooo cute!

I have an Amelie and if her little sister had been a brother he would have been Gabriel

I like Edward too, I prefer Teddy to Eddie though.

I also like;

Tobias / Toby
Benjamin / Ben
Joseph / Joe
William / Will

Are you French?

If not, I'd say that it would go with the increasingly popular likes of Oscar, Milo, Theo and so on. Though personally I prefer Edward, regardless of whether it "goes" with Amelie.

drivingmisscrazy - I'm with you...apart from when signing cards from all the family, when will it ever matter? (and even then it doesn't really matter).
I'd be tempted to pick the name that suits the child - it seems kind of unfair to let its older sibling determine its name before he or she is even born.

I have a Joshua & Amelie like both names together!

OracleOfDelphinium · 11/01/2011 21:23

Agree that Joshua is an excellent match for Amelie.

Thank you for all your great suggestions! Now lots of thinking to do.
