I have always loathed Ed- names, mainly because I dislike the nns Ed and Eddie. I grew fond of Edmund while reading Narnia. I still couldn't use it due "Ed" (I would hate hearing it if he choose to go by either nn). I then came across Esmond, a name I like almost as much as Edmond without the Ed- problem.

What name do you like better? Edmund as a mn or Esmond as a first?
