User Comments about the name Edward
Comment left Mar 17, 2010: "I have an uncle named Edward who is very dear to me, and would love to someday name a son after him. I'm not worried about the Twilight association because I have faith that that garbage will be forgotten about before too long. :P Edward is a great name with an extensive history; don't let the latest tweenie fad ruin it for you!"

Comment left Feb 04, 2010: "was an awesome name until Twilight ruined it.. like someone else said...
once this site has data for 2009 and 2010 i cant wait to see the sudden rise in the graph on the amount of kids named Edward. It will skyrocket randomly in 2009 because of stupid mothers naming their kids after Edward Cullen" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jan 17, 2010: "I like it as a name, but sadly Twilight has killed it for me. And I sincerely apologise to all those future children who's mothers are going to name them after Edward Cullen.
But yes, I agree that Edward is a nice name, but not the nicknames." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jan 08, 2010: "We named our son Edward after my husband's father, who passed away right before my husband and I met. I don't know anyone else in my circle of friends that is named Edward, and we only have one family member (now deceased) with that name, so it seems fairly unique to me. I know it is a little old-fashioned, but we both like it. We call our son Eddie for short." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jul 07, 2009: "Edward is a very common name in the United Kingdom. I've taught at a boy's prepartory school for 9 years and each class has had at least one Edward in it." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jun 13, 2009: "I think that after Twilight, a guy called Edward will never have any trouble getting a girlfriend." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left May 06, 2009: "I do feel that my name is rare, especially after looking at the chart above. Another indication is that none of my friends are named that. It does sound old fashioned, but I like my name because it is unique. But I do agree with one of the comments that was previously left...in that I don't like any of the nicknames to represent me. If you are going to address me by my first name, say Edward or don't say anything at all." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Apr 30, 2009: "I can't stand this name or any of the names that begin with "Ed"" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Dec 23, 2008: "Edward was my wonderful father's name. Edward Michael Trausch. I sure do miss him." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jun 21, 2008: "I think that Edward is a very very special name. I don't know anybody with that name but I still like it. Actually, I first started to take notice in the name after I read the book TWILIGHT. It is a very good book and he is a very good character. Edward is a very cool name, but it also reminds me of someone who is quiet. I am thinking of, after I get married and have a boy, naming my son Edward, even though it is a old-fashioned name. I still think it is a perfect name for a boy." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Feb 02, 2007: "My 2 yr. old son is named Edward after my favorite uncle. I am yet to meet another kid with this name. I love it's uniqueness- are any other parents out there using it for a first nane?" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Dec 02, 2006: "Edward is one of my favorite names for a boy. The only thing is if I ever had a son and named that I would just want him to be called Edward. No nicknames." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Feb 17, 2006: "i think that Edward is a cool name but then again in a girl woah woah woah woah woah dont take that in a bad way tee hee" (Report as inappropriate)
