  1. We named our son after his grandfather Edwin. We love the name and feel it suits him well. We chose a middle name from the other side of the family to make it more personal for our family.

  3. Edwin is a family name on my dad’s side! He had a brother that passed away as a baby due to a congenital heart defect before they knew how to fix it! His nephew also had the name!

    • My long lost papa also had the name Edwin and he too had an unfortunate defect which was involving his teeth.He struggled for years with it as he found it hard to chew, meaning he missed out on a lot of delicious foods which he then sadly passed due to it.
