Love Eden. Can't have it myself, but would if I could!

littledinaco · 30/12/2016 19:41

Eden is beautiful. I would keep as Enen though, not too fussed on Edie and think it would be misheard as Evie which is very popular.

I love Edie, but don't like Eden at all.

I prefer Edith nn Edie, or even Edita nn Edie.

TweedleDee3TweedleDum · 30/12/2016 20:48

Eddie

TweedleDee3TweedleDum · 30/12/2016 20:49

Edie, even.

I like Eden but unfortunately it's not popular where I live as it's the name of the large river that runs through the city that flooded 2000 homes last December

VioletRoar · 30/12/2016 20:56

Beautiful name!

Vixxfacee · 30/12/2016 20:57

Eden is lovely.

Stalingrad · 30/12/2016 23:40

I know a male Eden. I don't love it forNeither sex. Edie is sweet but better as a nn for Edith.

Sierra259 · 31/12/2016 04:55

I prefer Edie to Eden and they are both very popular round here (south west London)

Staranise123 · 31/12/2016 08:05

Eden is lovely (but I don't like Edie and would probably pronounce that Ed-ie not Eed-ie)

I have only ever heard of 1 Eden and know none in our area! :) any middle name suggestions? Surname 2 syllables

I knew a little girl called Eden and always thought it was a lovely name. I'd go three syllable middle name. It can't think of any sorry! X
