Freddy.

AmberEars · 30/10/2016 07:07

Ted

Ankleswingers · 30/10/2016 07:07

Love Teddy.

Teddy Smile

Eminybob · 30/10/2016 08:53

I love Ted/Teddy with Theodore as full name

DramaAlpaca · 30/10/2016 19:13

Teddy, with either Edward or Theodore on the birth certificate.

Barefootcontessa84 · 30/10/2016 19:32

Teddy (as a shortening of a longer name). For some reason, I think Freddys are naughty / disruptive!

Joinourclub · 30/10/2016 19:35

Love both

Madbengalmum · 30/10/2016 19:36

Teddy definately.

RushToKansas · 30/10/2016 19:36

Freddy!

HardcoreLadyType · 30/10/2016 19:37

Edward or Frederick? Wink

Teddy

By a country mile

Really dislike Freddy

icantgetnosleep5 · 30/10/2016 19:43

would u use th full names on the BC?
i like both edward/ theodore or frederick , with teddy/freddy nicknames
A teenager/ man would probably want a more serious name as he got older.
My son is ten and already sensitive to any nicknames in public. There's a William in his class who th kids call Willy and who often cries as a result !
I think boys are more self conscious

:)

Either

Presumably Teddy or Freddy would call themselves Ted or Fred if they wanted a more 'grown-up' name, regardless of whether they had short or longer version on the birth certificate.

On that logic, I think I might choose Freddy, because I (somewhat) prefer Fred to Ted. But either are good solid names.

WanderingTrolley1 · 30/10/2016 20:40

Freddy!

SpunkyMummy · 30/10/2016 22:51

Freddy!

Iamthecatsmother · 30/10/2016 22:54

Definitely Teddy

EachandEveryone · 30/10/2016 22:57

Theirs absolutely no need to use a fuller version both can be stand alone names.

user1471467040 · 30/10/2016 22:59

We have a teddy (on his birth cert too) love love love it on him and for some reason everyone tends to remember his name! He's 4!

BadToTheBone · 30/10/2016 23:09

Teddy, don't like Freddy

dinorawr · 30/10/2016 23:10

Love teddy

age81 · 30/10/2016 23:17

Loved Teddy for DS , it didn't work with our surname. Confused

BarInSpace · 30/10/2016 23:47
