Really like it, expecially shortened to Gabe.

thequietone · 06/11/2008 18:52

Those are my two sons' middle names!! What a coincidence!

thequietone · 06/11/2008 18:52

Needless to say, think it's a cracking name.

Liffey · 06/11/2008 18:53

I'd reverse it because I prefer Edward to Gabriel. But both are good names, so Gabriel Edward is nice too.

I'm not too keen on Gabriel - sounds a little feminine too me... not sure why, though.

I prefer your other options, Clement and Raphael!

babysoon1 · 06/11/2008 18:54

really like it - Go for Gabriel Edward and call him Gabe!

Gabriel is really nice.

Boobz · 06/11/2008 20:21

My fave boy's name and my DH's name. Love them both xxx

Sesi · 06/11/2008 23:58

Love Gabriel. It's easily in my top 5 boys names.

I prefer Gabriel Edmund. I have always thought Edward is a bit of a dull name - but it's flows ok with Gabriel.

CurrantBun · 07/11/2008 10:21

Nearly called DS Gabriel, but couldn't get past the thought of "Gay-boy" taunts in the playground ... although Gabe is cool.

I would definitely reconsider it for a second DS though.

LurkerOfTheUniverse · 07/11/2008 10:39

Edward Gabriel sounds better

cool name

lunamoon2 · 08/11/2008 23:09

I really like it.

RachieB · 09/11/2008 10:09

Nancy66 · 09/11/2008 10:31

Gabriel is a great name - like Edward too, but definitely prefer Gabriel so I wouldn't reverse the order if I were you
