Thanks

Thumbs up here! Iv got an Edith :-)

NaturWilde · 26/12/2017 18:11

Stunning!

I love it! Couldn't use it though as I sadly live in a country where they can't pronounce "th" so my favourites (Edith and Arthur) were both vetoed!

Gladisgood · 26/12/2017 18:14

thumbs up !

helly29 · 26/12/2017 18:14

Love it! Would love to use it but would never get past dh

AdaColeman · 26/12/2017 18:14

I love it, always reminds me of the fabulous Edith Sitwell!

BenLui · 26/12/2017 18:15

I think it’s lovely, I know a few. One goes by Edie and one by Ed.

ShotsFired · 26/12/2017 18:22

The only Edith I know is this one.

So I can't say it normally, it always come out as "Eeee-deees" or "youstuuuuuu-peed womaaaaan"

Edith

Love it. It's DDs middle name and was neck and neck between that and her first name for the whole pregnancy.

Partridgeinabeartree · 26/12/2017 18:33

Sorry, I really don't like it.

Vitalogy · 26/12/2017 18:39

Beautiful.

Elsouth · 26/12/2017 18:41

I absolutely love this name. Always makes me think of downton. But I just think it's a beautiful name

Vitalogy · 26/12/2017 18:41

I like Edie for short too.

MikeUniformMike · 26/12/2017 18:42

Not keen, but ok in France.

Bear2014 · 26/12/2017 18:45

DD's best friend is called Edith and I think it's lovely. She's a cool kid.

TeaAndToast85 · 26/12/2017 18:46

I must admit I do think of old ladies, but if I met a young fashionable women called Edith I would think it was quite cool x

onlyonaTuesday · 26/12/2017 18:47

I love it.
It’s a strong yet feminine name

JollyGiraffe · 26/12/2017 18:49

I do like it, but wouldn't choose it myself.

Edie is also nice Smile

Mrsknackered · 26/12/2017 18:59

I love it. My closest friend is Edith (Edie/Speedy)

it's also one of the names of our mice

yikesanotherbooboo · 26/12/2017 19:01

I love Edith / Edie

gigi556 · 26/12/2017 19:01

LOVE IT. Was my top choice for a girls name but I ended up with a boy!

AlmostChristmas · 26/12/2017 19:05

Not common but becoming more popular.

Thumbs up- like Edie

Crunchymum · 26/12/2017 19:20

Thanks!!

It's had a pretty universal thumbs up from one side of the family. Other side don't like it at all. Not that I care..... Just not completely sold on it?
