Baby Name Poll Results

Hi. I am having my first baby, a son, and have decided on Alexander for his middle name. My first choice had been Tad or Ted for his first name but my family said they were too short and nicknameish. Due to the recent movie named "Ted" I have gotten a lot of negative feedback on Ted and it was eliminated. In my last poll I was suggested Theo and Thadd which I like. I really like Tad, Thadd and Theo by themselves. Can they stand alone or are the just nicknames? I am also considering Theodore (though it’s not a fav) and Thaddeus (which I do really like). Nickname for Theodore would be either Tad or Theo. Nickname for Thaddeus would be Thadd. What are your thoughts? Thank you, Marshea Bateman.
