Edwin and call him Eddie. It’s perfect.

I absolutely love Gideon! I used it for me dog and wish I'd saved it for a child.

Do not worry about popularity. Honestly it does not matter at ALL.

I like a lot of your names (wrote a few off for popularity too). Here's what we are considering:

Charles (Charlie)
Samuel
Silas
Solomon
George
Gregory
Milo
Leo

I love your list! I really like Edwin, Edward, Samuel (I don't think it's too popular) and Alfred. I really wanted to go with Henry for my DS after my dad and grandfather but it's so popular now.

Other ideas:
George
Charlie
Simon

Cornelius

Nickname "Neil" (or "Corny")

Solomon
Gabriel
Zachary
Adam (I think this one in particular is crazy underused)


I do like Adam, though unfortunately we lost my first cousin, Adam, to suicide last year and I just can't bring myself to use it. Plus, I think it should be reserved for his sister should she want to use it.

I do like Gabriel, which makes me think of Gideon, which I hadn't considered. Hmm.. Gideon.

Thanks for your response!


Gideon is a wonderful name! I love Gabriel but if you don't like common, Gabriel is pretty common.

This.

My 4 kids have top 5/10 names for their birth year, yet they’ve never been in a class or on a team with a kid with the same name. Not an issue at all.

Have you considered Benjamin? Classic but not popular right now.
