The name Edward means 'Guardian' and that is one who
not only guards, but also protects and maintains the safety of the people
or possessions placed in his charge.In interpreting his name it has to be realized that it is the
spiritual and or emotional part of Edward's' name that is being studied.
He pays attention to the smallest of details, for everything is
important to him.Others may
see Edward as maybe being just a little bossy.It seems as though he must take it upon himself to see to it that
things are taken care of and he will do it all if no one else will. He is
a man that looks after and cares for those he loves, and anyone that the
Lord places in his life.He
even acts as a sort of shield, protecting them from harm if he can in any
way possible.
He
is like a watchdog in a sense.Edward
is able to 'sniff out' trouble, find its source and put a stop to it
before it becomes a real problem.He
may even appear to be stern and unmoving to some that do not know him very
well.This is because Edward takes life so very seriously, and not
from a lack of love.
