Edgar is a male baby name that is derived from Old English, and his known to be historically associated with the 10th-century English king, Edgar the Peaceful. This baby name that means ‘wealth/fortune’ was quite popular back in the 1880s, according to ohbabynames.com. It almost made the Top 50 list back when the U.S. government began tracking name trends. I think the name Edgar is one of distinction and makes for an excellent short and sweet name for a boy. You could call your little one Eddy for short.  It’s an adorable name that’s not as popular as it once was, but that’s what makes it a cool name. Your tyke will for sure stand out in the sea of Chris’s and Michaels.
