[Facts] Re: The name Edd
Well, what you were told is correct. Edd is just a spelling variation of Ed, and Ed is most often a pet form of Edward, though it can be from Edgar, Edmund, Edwin, or any other name starting with Ed. And the "Ed-" syllable in all of those names goes back to an Old English word that meant "prosperity" or "rich".

He's friends with Ed and Eddy... other than that I dunno much about why someone would spell it Edd...
