Joe would be my choice, but I also like Edward.

Brightfield · 06/11/2009 09:37

The Edward NNs go really well with Finn.

Finn & Ted

Finn & Ned

Finn & Ed

Do names have to match anyway?

teameric · 06/11/2009 09:45

George or Edward

ScummyMummy · 06/11/2009 09:45

Joe

OrmIrian · 06/11/2009 09:47

Joe or Edward

Can't choose - love them all, but i do have a Samuel (only because the others had been taken)

Quads?

tattycoram · 06/11/2009 09:52

I love them all. Joe's my favourite, but a close relative had already nabbed it. I also love Edward. DS was nearly Ed/Eddie/Ned. I still sometimes regret it.

seeker · 06/11/2009 09:52

Edward. Fab name and TONS of lovely shortenings.

Or Edmund if you want to vary it.

liliputlady · 06/11/2009 09:53

I think they're all lovely, see what suits him!

pranma · 06/11/2009 10:29

Edward or Joe

Abubu · 06/11/2009 11:52

Samuel

snickersnack · 06/11/2009 13:43

Joe.

Caro79 · 06/11/2009 13:59

George or Joe.

Finn and Ted sound like cartoon characters.

MrsJohnDeere · 06/11/2009 14:01

George or Edward

HappyBump · 06/11/2009 14:04

My DS is George Finlay ... so I think George goes best with Finn ...

However I am expecting DS2 soon and we are thinking of Samuel

My nephew is Edward (Eddie) and I have an Uncle Joe ...

It seems all of them are very popular names these days, so difficult to choose all great names.

Esmee · 06/11/2009 14:21

Edward and Samuel would be my preferences.

I actually know siblings named Samuel (Sam), George and Edward!

Hulababy · 06/11/2009 14:43

I actually like all of them.

I prefer Joseph to Joe, and f Joseph would be my first choice.

Otherwise I love Edward too, with the nn Ned.

displayuntilbestbefore · 06/11/2009 14:45

Not so keen on Samuel but love the other names

pranma · 06/11/2009 16:24

birdofthenorth · 06/11/2009 18:08

Joe or Samuel

cranberrie · 06/11/2009 18:09
