    Question Old Man Poll

    Hello lovely ladies

    A while ago you helped me out with some fab suggestions for old fashioned boys names... I have a few options now but need to know honest opinions please.

    I realise my choices aren't "popular" but I like it that way... don't want too common a name... and also I'm going down the Old Man's Name route because I have two little Old Ladies, in the form of this lil' guy's big sisters, called Ivy Hazel and May Violet.

    Not a fan of them but out of those four I think Edmund Joseph sounds the nicest and goes well with your daughters' names.

    Edmund is my fave there, Edmund Hillary of Everest fame is a classic namesake and I love that it can be shortened to Eddie which is modern & groovy for your little old man in his teens.

    I like ned. had a friend called ned! i also like Edmund, but it does have a bit of a twilight theme to it and could become popular...

    I love the name Edmund!

    Don't like Wilbur as i think of the pig in "Charlotte's Web". Ned and Ted are OK but Edmund is much nicer.

    Love your daughters names. Oddly enough I used to have three guinea pigs named Ivy, Hazel, and Violet. (I currently have Mabel, Ramona and Cushion)
