Re: Edwin
in reply to a message by Billina
I like it less than Edward and but more than Edgar and Edmund - I know three (all adults over 40), one with Edwin as a first name and the others a George Edwin and a Nicholas Edwin.
The Edwin I know with it as a first name has a Welsh surname and I think his parents thought it would sound more mainstream outside Wales than the Welsh name Elwyn.
