I've been thinking of Edith a lot lately, it's rather nice, a bit old-fashioned, but has a charm to it that I really like. I've been watching the BBC mini series 'North & South' and there's an Edith in there and I love the way they say her name with their British accents. I've also read a story where it was used by a Scottish family. So because of those two associations that I've been thinking of lately I'd pair it with:
Margaret
Maxwell
Henry
Maria
John
Lennox (the character's LN in N&S)
Joyce
Mark
Celia
Billy
Humphrey
Alice
"That tounge of your's is hinged in the middle sister!"

Edith...I'm not sure if I really like it, but it's growing on me a bit. I still get the "old lady" vibe from it, but if I say it a couple times, I start liking it. Girl names starting with Ed- are generally unfeminine to me, but I think Edith is an exception that proves the rule (in my mind :-P).

"Shut up or I'll recite the dictionary as well."
"Oh, now you're going to make me vomit."
"Nice to know I'm returning the favor."

Edith, Agnes and Matilda
are names which go together imo. The same style. Names like Ida, Agnes and Matilda have been popular in Sweden for a long time, and Edith is getting more popular now.
"But it’s all right now.
I learned my lesson well.
You see you can’t please everyone
So you got to please yourself."
