Abel I like, Winston ok. Ugh to the others (sorry).

jumpyjack · 28/10/2011 09:42

Love Edwin. Not keen on any of the others.

Montsti · 28/10/2011 11:37

I'm afraid they're not to my taste. Edwin at a push...

I love, love, love Howard - very cool! Howie is a super cute nn.
Edwin is nice too - dd is pals with a very sweet Edwin.
Winston - also fab (John Lennons middle name, dd tells me!)
Abel - not keen.

Edwin or Winston.

Winston

I think Edwin is lovely (even though my keyboard just turned it to "earwig"!)

Not so keen on the others.

exoticfruits · 28/10/2011 19:13

Edwin-not the rest.

JojoMags · 28/10/2011 20:34

Love Edwin. Not too keen on the rest.

LaTristesse · 28/10/2011 20:46

I like them all, which is very rare! Nice to see some unusual names, good one! Agree also that Howie is a lovely nn.

RachelHRD · 28/10/2011 20:53

DH is an Edwin. It is unusual and can always be shortened to Ed if DS prefers when older.

qwerty123 · 28/10/2011 21:11

Edwin and Winston. Good choices.

Moblem · 28/10/2011 22:32

DD2 would have been an Edwin if she was a boy. Great name :)

twogirls1more · 29/10/2011 07:02

Love Edwin! Bring on the old unusual names! Also quite like Howard. I'm preg with a little boy we're naming Theodin, (Theo.:))

Fixture · 30/10/2011 18:49

I like Edwin and Abel.

yellowflowers · 30/10/2011 21:20

Love Howard. Is underused.

latrucha · 30/10/2011 21:22

Howard. Just recommended it on another thread, then i saw this. I feel a trend coming on.

MerryMarigold · 30/10/2011 21:26

Quite like them all. Also found a Nelson the other day which kind of fits that trend.

mopsyflopsy · 01/11/2011 10:51

I like Winston. Edwin is nice too. How about Quentin (we have one [biased]).

Sossiges · 01/11/2011 11:00

Winston if any of them
