See here for the explanation, if you can’t figure out what we’re doing here. 😉 (Note: I’m not doing nicknames as other forms, since, well, they’re nicknames. I might do a post on nicknames I consider passable as full names at some point. You won’t see Sasha or Ned here.)
- Edward: Duarte, Eduard, Eduardo, Edvard, Edmund
- Eduarda
- Christopher: Christoph/e, Cristobal, Kester, Christian
- Christine, Christina, Christabel, Kirsten

If anyone’s got any more male names they’d like me to include, pipe up and I’ll throw them on here.

How weird would Eduard be on a kid with a Scottish surname?
My Gagi was a Joe and there are half a dozen in the family. My Josephine is named for the Aunt who was the original Joe’s first daughter.
I like James in any form!

Eduard would be bizarre with your surname Lola, sorry.
My boyfriend has a ton of Williams in the family, like your Joes. I’m hoping to get Wilhelmina in there somewhere.

for James: Santi is my favorite, short for Santiago.
