Edward Patrick vs. Theodore Patrick vs. James Patrick

My main concern - is Theodore getting too popular? Is Edward a nice alternative? I still like James too. I’m not worried about nicknames, those can come naturally in my opinion. :) Only 11 days til my due date and really want to make a decision! Please help by voting and commenting. Thanks!

Edward is too Twilight, and yes every little Edward I’ve met was indeed named after Twilight.

James, now that is way too common. Every other kid has James as one of their names, first or middle.

James is one of my favorite names, and is probably the most popular/common of the names on your list. I only know one little Theodore and no Edwards. I really like Patrick too!

I’m not a Twilight fan, so that never even entered my brain! :) I haven’t heard of any baby Edwards or James recently in my neck of the woods (Portland, OR). Thanks for the feedback.

I’m seeing Theodore a lot on the polls lately. That would worry me too. I think Edward is a wonderful alternative. I don’t find it nearly as identifiable with Twilight as some of the other names from that series, like Jasper, for instance. Edward is such a classic, it can avoid that stigma. And, honestly, I only know one younger Edward. He’s maybe in middle school now, so I ’m sure Twilight had nothing to do with his name.

Edward is lovely and my favourite.
Twilight is just a fad but by the time he grows up no-one will remember it. Edward is a lovely classic name which suits all ages. I also like James but not quite as much.
