A name for our boy

We have a daughter called Edie and are having a boy later this year.

I want to call him Rupert but OH is not keen. We like Albert but are Albi and Edie too similar. Also like Alfred but is Freddie/Alfie too similar to Edie? I like Joe but not overly keen on Joseph. Any other suggestions would be welcomed!

Not a fan at all of the Albert/Stanley/Freddie type names. They're popular now and are already sounding a bit meh. There are loads of all of them.

Rupert is much better than any of them. Agree that Rufus is a really nice alternative. Edie and Rufus sounds cool, Edie and Stan sound like they're on a billboard in the 1950s stood round a Wurlitzer Grin
