I've seen worse, but I'm not especially drawn to the name.

I love it! It's so refreshing and Old English-sounding.

Edith is greatFOr a while I was really digging this name, but it fell off my radar. I still like it, though. I think it's a very happy name. I would suggest matching with other very old-fashioned, Victorian naes. Some suggestions:William
Edward
Eliza
Nell
Isaac
Margaret
Eleanor
Jack
John
James
Thomas
Edmund
Katherine nn Kate
Miriam
Adam

Not a fanI don't like any names ending in "ith" that I know of, which includes Judith and Lilith. I must not be found of the "ith" sound.

Yes!I love the historic, Anglo-Saxon-ness of Edith. And since the Victorians had their medieval-revival trend it also makes me think of Victorian times. The nn Edie is so cute and an added bonus.Siblings I could envision:Margaret, Audrey, Frances, Matilda, Rosamund, Winifred, Constance, Philippa (Pippa?), Adelaide / Alice, Cecily, Joan, Helen, Louisa, Augusta (Aggie?), Beatrice, Agatha, Cornelia, Benedicta, Horatia, Prudence, Anselma / Selma, Imelda, Fidelma, Muriel, Irene, Jessamine, Eglantine, Hazel, Blythe, Miriam, Hannah, Bridget (Bridie), Gwendolen -- John, Walter, Geoffrey, Piers, Bertram (Bertie?), Wilfred, Alfred, ...
