Really like the name Woody for a boy, but have always wanted the name on the birth certificate to be the full name not the nickname.
What do you guys think of Woodrow?
Also, my surname begins with a W and we want to use William as a middle name. Does WWW as initials work?

Not to my taste, but as long as your surname is Wilson it's alright.

Err, isn't Wilson...!

I wouldn't have wood and willy together - but I blame Louis Thereoux's weird weekend with the porn stars.

If you're using Woody as nickname then Woodrow as full name is definitely the way to go, or Elwood.

(Not Edward, which isn't pronounced Ed-wood, but Ed-wuhd).

I don't like Woodrow I think Elwood is a far more beautiful way to get the nn Woody

Why not just call him World Wide Web?! You can't possibly be serious about initials WWW surely?

Wilson

Woodrow is fine as a full name for Woody.

I think initials W. W. are quite cool!

I don't see the issue with having WWW as initials. Initials are hardly used as well these days.
