Ted.. just Ted.

[BeautifulStars93]

he would be christened Ted. go by Ted or Teddy.
Edward and Theodore arent options.
wdyt?

Love it and a DF did it last year, it's a lovely name and suits her DS down to the ground.

Yes. Nice

Nice strong name and very easy to learn how to spell!

I thought I would get a terrible reaction! does it go ok with sisters Isabelle and Eliza?

Lovely and goes well. I would go for Edward, but that's just me it's certainly not compulsory!

Call him Ted!
Don't see the point in registering a name that you don't like and won't use.
"Hi, my name is Sarah but people call me Helen" it's just the same

Love it!

Ted 2 the film comes out this summer.

I like it and it was a strong contender for DS but DH only likes it if it's short for Theodore or Edward at a push, so we've disregarded it. I think it's fine to use on it's own.

I'm very likely to call my baby Ned....just Ned. I don't understand using a BC name and then never calling your child by that name. Just Ted is a great name.

Love it.

Love it. This is our #1 choice for DC1 if it's a boy (due in October). I don't like Edward/Theo/Theodore, I LOVE Ted and Teddy - really don't see the point in adding so-called formal name that we don't like, when the name we love is Ted.

I originally just wanted Teddy but DH has convinced me that Ted as the 'official' name might be better as he grows up.

Ha just seen your other DC names - Isabelle is currently #1 contender if it's a girl!

Don't like it by itself. Fine as a nn. Otherwise it sounds like a toy.

It's good.

Wouldn't do Teddy as a name by itself(too babyish), but Ted is fine.

I have a 2.5 yr old Ted. I didn't like any of the longer versions, so just went with it. He generally gets called Teddy, but like mrsscarlett we thought Ted might be more grown up as he gets older. There are a fair few Teds/Teddys around though, in case you think you're choosing something rare or unusual!

As long as you don't mind people trying to call him Theodore or Edward - go for it :)

I would personally choose Edward to go with Isabelle and Eliza and call him 'Ted' for short :) (I guess you call the others by shorter names?)

Love

I like Ted.

Personally I would go for the longer name and use the nickname, but nothing wrong with Ted. But I like long names with nicknames. More versatile.

Never ever had anyone try and call my Ted Edward or Theodore. Occasionally people ask if it's short for something but not always. It's pretty common as a name in itself.

I know 2 and think it is a ridiculous name, sorry. A bit juvenile. Like super ted

Although I am now wracking my brain that that guy from 3 men and a baby might have been called ted and that was acceptable (to me).

isabelle gets Izzy.
eliza doesnt get shortened x

Buggery balls, everyone is picking Ted these days. It will be the new Jack soon.
I have a Ted. Although he is far from a baby,.
