DS's name is William and we call him Will. We are expecting another baby boy and like the kind of old fashioned names that have some family tie. There is one name that we really like but it unfortunately doesn't go great with our last name so we are looking for other options. So far my favorite is Edward, probably nicknamed Ted or Teddy when he is little. Is that too weird to have a Will and Ted?
Any other suggestions?

I like Will and Ted.
Maybe some other classic names like Henry, George or Alexander?

Love.

adorable!

Hehe they might get Bill and Ted references.. But by the time they are old enough to get it, no one will know who Bill and Ted were!
Teddy is one of my all time favorite boys names
-
@mrs. wagon: That's the only reason I'm hesitant but I figure they will have no idea, right?!
-
I've seen Bill and Ted and that didn't even occur to me until I saw Mrs. Wagon's post. I say it is fine.
-
@skipra: nope! Try to think of a goofy duo from your parents' teenage years... I can't think of any!
-
@pui: George is definitely a favored family name but I just can't use it because of the association with the royal family. Alexander might be my personal favorite boy name but it is awful with our last name unfortunately.

@mrs. wagon: haha I have no idea who Bill and Ted are!
I think William and Edward are a really well paired sibling set!
-
@skipra: I really like the combo! Congratulations!!!
-
Bill and Ted didn't even cross my mind! I think Will and Ted sound great together!
-
@mrs. wagon: Cheech and Chong? Laverne and Shirley? Lucy and Ethel? Haha!
@skipra: If it makes you feel any better I don't know who Bill and Ted are.
-
@Mrs. Champagne: I don't know who Bill and Ted are either!
@skipra: I think that is a lovely sibling set
-
Wow I am really surprised by how many people have not heard of Bill and Ted! DH and I always say that if we do go with that name then at least they can have excellent adventures together.
Thanks everyone, I'm glad that we at least have one option for a name!

@skipra: my boss' name is William (goes by Bill) and his twin brother is Edward, goes by Ted.

@rachiecakes: Wyld Stallyns!!!

I love Will and Ted together! I did immediately think of Bill and Ted, but I don't think it matters. And LOL at them having excellent adventures!!
