Leo

Leo by a million miles

That's really weird. My ex and his wife argued for ages over the two names. They chose Freddie in the end. I like them both.

FabFiveFreddie · 26/09/2016 02:12

Sorry, gonna say it. I prefer both Frederick and Leopold, and between them Frederick.

pilotswife · 26/09/2016 03:15

Freddie is gorgeous

raviolidreaming · 26/09/2016 05:18

Leo. Definitely.

MrsTerryPratchett · 26/09/2016 05:20

Freddie isn't a name though. Frederick is a name. Fred at a push. But Freddie? On a birth certificate?

marmitecrumpets · 26/09/2016 05:21

Leo

Seekingmiracles · 26/09/2016 07:19

Both nice names, but I prefer Leo.
DO NOT go with Frederick, it's bloody horrendous!! And Leopold Hmm Jesus Christ!!

AbandonHopeDarren · 26/09/2016 08:42

Leo by miles (unless Freddie is to be a nn for Wilfred, which is my favourite name atm)!

katemess12 · 26/09/2016 09:42

Leo.

Hate Freddie, but love Frederick with the nickname Fred.

Caldini22 · 26/09/2016 10:18

Leo by far

Foxtato · 26/09/2016 10:32

Leo!

CPtart · 26/09/2016 10:39

Leo by a mile. Freddie is in the same vein as Alfie, Archie, Charlie etc which I dislike.

0pti0na1 · 26/09/2016 10:42

Leo, although I like both.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 26/09/2016 12:45

Leo.

sonlypuppyfat · 26/09/2016 12:52

I wouldn't lumber anyone with either

PotatoBread · 26/09/2016 22:31

Leo.

Freddie is sweet as a cutsie nickname but not as a name on a birth certificate

Sophronia · 27/09/2016 17:02

Leo, but Freddie if short for Frederick, Alfred or Wilfred

Lucylocket2592 · 27/09/2016 17:04

Leo is a beautiful name!

BendydickCuminsnatch · 27/09/2016 17:07

Probably Leo out of the two.

DramaAlpaca · 27/09/2016 17:55

Leo

FindingNemoFindingDory · 28/09/2016 03:08

Leo!

FixItUpChappie · 28/09/2016 03:21

I think Leo is getting too popular personally - I'd go with Freddie

WanderingTrolley1 · 28/09/2016 03:26

Freddie.

If I were to have any more boy children, he would be a Freddie.
