Edward - Ed for short

(biased)

I don't like - Vaughan/Vaughn, Orson, Verne, Gregory, Monty, Mungo, Edgar, Edmund

I like Samuel, but think Edward is definitely the best - shortned to Ned

Oliver
Joseph
William
Charles
Fred
Harry
Henry
Thomas

Monty is really common at the moment - I know 3. I like the classics - Samuel, Edward and Tom.

I'm not keen on any of them names but if had to pick of them I would pick Gregory.

here is a few for you to think of
Ethan,
Lorcan
Stephen
Jaime-Irish for James/Seamus
Jay-Can be short for Jason
Eoin or Owen

These are some lovely names for boys. Hope it helps.
