In 2025, 225 babies in England and Wales were named Eddie. In the US, 358 were, though that figure is from 2017 — the most recent full year we hold. Its US peak was 4,456 in 1947.
Looking further back: between 1880 and 2008, Eddie was most common in 1910, when it went to 0.28% of American babies of that sex. Squarely vintage-revival territory.
