Ned?????

[NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain]

I can't believe I am doing this, have always said I wouldn't.

Simple yes or no please, easier for me to work out the verdict!

Yes

yes it's fab !

Oh, have already got 5 votes for yes, 1 vote for no, so will add them in as well.

Yes: I have only DDs but would have had a Ned (& a Joe) if they were boys. It's lovely... and I had a great uncle Ned who was the sweetest man ever

No.

Yes ! I like it.

No (sounds like he would be a farmer on emmerdale)

or a donkey

but I do like it...

Yes

I wanted it but dp couldn't get rid of the Simpsons association

Yes but register as Edward my friends boy decided at 12 that Ned was not cool anymore and call me Eddie please.

Gives more options

if you pick Edward you can have to option of Ed,Eddie or Ned !

oh snap charlotte

I like it, but would probably go for it as a diminutive of Edward, which I also like. But of you only want him to be called Ned, then go for it.

NO. Obviously. How could anybody do this.

I like Edward, and Ted, and Red though. Ned! ffs!

Ed/Eddie/Edward... I do like them all, but they just don't go with our surname. Ed isn't too bad with the surname, but the rest just turns into a mouthful.

So is that 13 for yes, and 3 for no so far? I am trying to keep up!

Oh no, 4 for no!

You don't like it Green? LOL

i think ned is sweet but i wouldnt because in some parts of the country it is the word for chav.

Not if you're in Scotland, or ever plan to be .

you aren't scottish, are you... it's like calling your son 'chav', 'neet', or 'thick jobless runt that wears a baseball cap backwards and drinks cider on a street corner hurling abuse at passers by'.

if you never intend going north then go right ahead - apart from the connotations it's quite sweet.

ooo - we all read this at the same point! x posts everywhere!

Flanders, sorry.

Yes love love it

No, not Scottish, and never intend on being....

Is it that bad?

Not too bothered about the Simpsons link, for some strange reason.
