Edie, Edith... too popular?

I will be having a little girl and quite like the name 'Edie'. Is it too popular? She'll be my first, and I don't know anyone with kids in the area to run it past... What does the wisdom of Mumsnet of say?

My SIL is called Edith and she really rocks it. I think it's a fairly strong name though, not everyone can carry it off.

I prefer Edith as it's nice for a child but also an adult, Edie is too childish for an adult.

I'm not too keen on Edith but I like Edie very much.

I dunno about Edie being too childish for an adult ... I know a few adult Edies (40s/50s) and have never felt it childish.

I've never met one.

It's on our girls shortlist. I like it as a nn for Meredith or Edith.

It's more popular than when you were considering it back in 2011, OP Grin
