I just wondered what the perception was of this name- suggested by my DH. Not pregnant yet though so lots of time- just talking hypothetically.
I don’t mind Alphie as a shortening, although I wouldn’t ever pick ‘Alfie’ on its own. Suppose could also be Al or Alph.
I have loved the nickname Teddy as short for Edward/Edmund/Edgar for over a decade and now we come to actually planning TTC it’s crazy popular dammit.
I’m not bothered about them being the only one in the school with a name but not one of five in the class.
It’s not my last name but it’s quite similar to Jones - so Alphonse Jones.
