Wilf or Albie?

[TurquoiseWeekend]

Baby is due at the end of Feb and we don't know the sex.
I thought we'd settled on Wilfred for a boy (known as Wilf). But we've decided we also quite like Albert (known as Albie).
Is Albie too much along the lines of Archie/Alfie etc? Which one is nicer?

I prefer Albie. I think Wilf/Wilfred is bloody awful but it does seem to be rising in the trendy stakes.

Wolf. To me albie is for an albino rabbit.

Oops!

Neither

Neither. Both are too popular and faddy

Of the two, Albie but that’s only because Wilf is so awful.

I love Wilf!

I second wolf!

Personally neither are for me, just seem too much of the old man name trend, however, if you love them keep both on your mind and then decide when baby comes out. With all of ours we always had a couple of names in mind but waited to see what they looked like and what felt right once they were here before properly deciding.

Albie is awful.

Wilf! It's so cute 😊

Not keen on either but if I had to choose one I’d go for Wilf.

Albert

I know a couple of little Wilfs, and even met a baby Wilbur the other day!

I don't like either sorry.

Definitely Wilfred.

Could also use Fred/Freddie.

The Unmumsy Mum's third child is called Wilf.

Love Wilfred, really dislike Albie, I like Bertie as a nn for Albert though.

Much prefer Albie, don’t like Wilf at all

I prefer Wilfred, which gives you Wilf/Fred/Freddie as nns.

Albie/Albert/Bertie by far.

Wilf

Albert but nn Bertie. Like Wilfred too though, although nn Freddie.

Wilf sounds like a woolf or a worid 'wilfully'.
Don't like boys names that ends with "ie".

Definitely prefer Wilf.

I really don’t like Albie (though I know lots do!) so I’d say Wilf
