I love Imogen and would definitely choose it and use it.Eden? On the same level as Heaven, though better than Nevaeh! Luckily nobody is likely to use Nede ...

Definately Imogen, I think Eden is really ugly and tacky. Doesn't help I live down the ways from a sleazy strip joint with Eden in it's name.

Eden.Eden sounds like Edith, which is a name I love, while Imogen is just really ugly for a girl.

EdenI can't stand Imogen. It sounds so full of itself and like a hipster's attempted at being sophisticated and interesting. No thanks. Eden is trendy, sure, but not in the repulsive way that I find Imogen to be trendy. Yecch. At least Eden has a sweet and nice little sound to it.

ImogenAnd, yes, I do dislike both, but Eden seem so Santa Barbarish to me (and Cruz also, which is why I don't get the popularity of it).

Probably EdenEven though I think Imogen is kind of cool, it sounds more like a product than a name to me.

Imogen!It's one of my favourite names. I love its sound and spelling, and I find it classic and feminine yet strong. It also reminds me of Imogen Heap, my favourite female singer.As for Eden, it makes me think of the celestial garden (I'm not a Christian). I don't know much about its usage history, but it strikes me as a trendy name, that happens to have two popular sounds in names nowadays (ee and den).

Imogen no contestIt's classic yet unique, and literary. Win win win!

I like the sound of Eden and I love the possible nn Edie. But the overall association I have with Eden is the obvious Biblical one. It just sounds like a soap opera character, and a trampy one at that. Sorry. How about Enid or Emer?I like the sound of Imogen too. The overall association I have with it is much more positive. The obvious Shakespeare reference is the cherry on top of the name for me. Plus, I have a thing for feminine "i" names. Imogen? Love, love, love it -- from all angles.

ImogenI think it's a beautiful name and I love the nn Ginny, which you could use with it. I don't really like Eden. It's kind of tacky to me. Like being named Heaven. Plus the one girl I knew named Eden didn't help my impression of the name.

Probably EdenSome find it tacky but I love it, more on a character than on a real child of mine actually.Imogen always makes me think of Ibuprofen. :/

Imogen, hands down. I love this name. Eden is too "trendy" for my tastes. Plus, I'm not too fond of the meaning.
