William. Freddie will date and become so noughties, just like karen and sharon are sooo seventies to us. Just my opinion mind.

William

William is great. But I don't like Willy much. Freddie is not my favorite.

if i had another ds it would be freddie. I love freddie. William I like but not wild about.

I like William, with Will for short.
I think William Alexander sounds good.

I'd vote for William (shortened to Will), but I'm biased

umberella · 24/06/2008 20:16

I like both too

Hulababy · 24/06/2008 20:25

I like both.

William, shortened to Will.

Fred, shortened to Freddie. Have to say that I don't really like Frederick though.

Prefer Freddie..

Clary · 26/06/2008 13:12

Both very fine names

William quite popular (3 in DD's year out of 35 boys)

Freddie fairly popular (2 in DD's school out of about erm 120 boys.

CristinaTheAstonishing · 26/06/2008 13:13

Both are v nice.

Jojay · 26/06/2008 13:22

William much nicer - shortened to Will.

I'm expecting ds2 and would choose this if it wasn't for DH - he's not so keen.
