Whats your favourite and least favourite?

Edward
Reuben
Wilfred
Arthur

Favourite - Edward
Least - Arthur

Biased as I have an Edward. So that would be my first pick. It has lots of options for nicknames like Ed, Ned, Ted etc.
Reuben would be the last choice.

Edward Wilfred and Arthur are my top picks
Reuben would be last by a long way

I love Reuben and Edward, like Arthur too but very trendy right now. Not too keen on Wilfred.

Reuben is beautiful.
Arthur also, Art as a nickname is perfect.
Edward a bit too common.
Wilfred unusual, big fan of that one.
Alternatives you might like: Walter, Ray, Alaric, Walden, Wilbur.

Now I have a different (and possibly very London centric) view.
I see Wilfred as very trendy and of the moment (I know several under 18 months).
Arthur has had its day here - I really like it but all the ones I know are between 6 and 16.
Reuben is more timeless and less common - it would be my favourite even though I prefer Rufus.
Edward is obviously timeless and lovely but I see it as a little more stuffy so I probably wouldn't choose that.

Faves are Edward then Reuben.

Fave Edward, least fave Wilfred.

Favourite Reuben, second Wilfred, third Edward, last Arthur.

I like Reuben, but prefer it spelt Ruben.

Fave - Edward (timeless, lots of nn choices)
Least favourite -Reuben (dislike the sound of it)

Wilfred and Arthur are nice but quite trendy (especially Arthur).

I like Edward and Reuben (I like it spelt Reuben fwiw) best. Hard to decide between them really!

Least favourite is probably Arthur, but there really aren't any bad ones there imo.

Edward or Reuben!

Favourite - Arthur
Least - Wilfred (tho I don’t mind it)

Like the other two

They are all nice names

Favourite is Reuben. I don’t really like the others.

Favourite - Edward
Least favourite (by a country mile) - Reuben. Bloody awful name.

I really like Wilfred and Arthur.
Reuben, a beautiful name. But most of the children I know with this name (and it's not many) will end up in juvenile care/prison. Edward. Cullen. Swoon. But actually, not keen. Teddy would be my choice.

Edward and Arthur I like.

I'm indifferent to Reuben.

I dislike Wilfred.

DS2 is Edward but I’m not actually that keen on it - we call him Ted but I (well DH really!) wanted full names on the birth certificate, then he can choose a different nn if he hated Ted when he’s older.

Edward by a country mile - really lovely name
Then Arthur
Wilfred
Really don’t like Reuben

Edward - Great, traditional name. Favourite.
Reuben - Really like.
Arthur - Dislike. I'm in London so you hear 'Arfur' a lot. However, I really like the nn Art.
Wilfred - Horrible name. Wilf is awful. Makes me think of the acronym milf 🤪

I like Reuben and Wilfred.

Edward isn’t common!

I like them all, Reuben most, Arthur least.

Edward favourite by a mile, Arthur OK, not keen on Wilfred, really dislike Reuben.
