Jessa added, “The kids are very excited. They were rooting for Edward.”<\/p>\n

“We liked the sound of Edward from pretty early on in this pregnancy,” Ben explained. “We always like historical names, too. So there’s some historical significance with Edward\u2014Jonathan Edwards, King Edward VI of England… and then his middle name is Owen, which John Owen is one of my favorite theologians.”<\/p>\n

Before announcing the name, Ben and Jessa listed Edward as one of the possible picks.<\/p>\n

In the comments of the YouTube video, one fan wrote, “I knew you were going to pick Edward loving it.”<\/p>\n

Another shared, “I\u2019m glad you went with Edward. I love it!”<\/p>\n

Many others approved the moniker, with one YouTube user writing, “Edward Owen has such great flow. And, the name looks good on paper too with the two w’s. Congrats.”<\/p>\n

Someone else commented, “Thank you for sharing. When I heard the name choices, I thought Edward Owen was beautiful.”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, yet another fan wrote, “Oh Edward Owen is a beautiful name! Love it! Congratulations!”<\/p>\n
