Our second son is named Eddison. I'misspelled it on the birth certificate, so he is stuck with an even more individual name. It is inter'sting how popluar it has been in the past, and now again in 2018. He was born in 2008, so no one was naming their kids that at the time.

Could sometimes be a girl's name, in part as an alternative to Addison or Madison (the'selves once boys' names). The American i'ventor Thomas Alva Edison bore this name as a surname, which is either a patronymic from Edward or a metronymic from Edith.
