Edmund looks so much more attractive. Are the two names pronounced exactly the same way? My favourite Ed names are Edmund, Edward and Edwin, in that order. Not a fan of Edgar, although it's okay. I love the nickname Ed. I also like Edwina for girls. This group of names definitely seem to be gaining attention, and rising in popularity.

I think it is just such a classy name. It sounds sophisticated, but still has this friendly and down to earth feel. I prefer it to Edward and also Edmund.
