Really finding it hard to pick a girls name! What does everyone think of Edie?

I have an Edie. Just Edie on birth certificate. Still absolutely adore it.

I much prefer Edith!

We were going to call DD2 Edie, but in the end decided against it because we felt it was too nicknamy and couldn't find a longer version we liked. We also hated Edith! DP liked Elodie but I felt it a bit too contrived to call her something we'd never use, and was also worried she would become (another) Ellie

I have an Edie...named after Edie Sedgewick and Edie and the New Bohemians (80s child). Love the name and it always gets compliments.

I like it and another long version could be Elodie

It’s on our short list for girls along with Elsie. I really like Edie because of the Andy Warhol connection. It’s not overly girly either which I like.

I think it's too nicknamey and a bit bland. It merges with all the names like Ellie, Elsie, Evie, etc. I wouldn't put it on the birth certificate. Edina?
