There's been some assertions that his birth name was Edmund, not Edward. The only full-length biography of him that I know of (okay, at 139 pages it's pretty damn short, but it's still a biography) lists him as "Edward". If someone has a comparable source indicating otherwise please say what it is, and we can try to get to the truth from there. -R. fiend 04:12, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

It was make sense if his birth name was Edmund. After all Éamonn is Irish for Edmund, not Edward (althought I admit Edmund is often mistranslated as Éamonn). Éadbhárd is Irish for Edward.Derry Boi 14:28, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
