I believe it’s spelled [name]Jedidiah[/name] in the Bible, so that’s what I would vote for. I don’t dislike [name]Jedediah[/name]. [name]Jedadiah[/name] is the only one that looks really off to me.
Thank you so much name berries, just these few responses have confirmed which spelling I like the most jedidiah, I think I just needed to hear it reflected back to me. I keep freaking out that I’m going to chose a name I love and bubba is going to grow up hating it, so I have become a bit obsessive. Thank you!
[name]Jedidiah[/name], I wouldn’t call it the original Hebrew spelling (with a J and all) but it’s the most classic English spelling and the one most associated with English translations of the Bible. It’s fairly equivalent to [name]Joseph[/name] in that regard; the most classic translation.
And Yedidyah would be a huge pain in the butt in an English-speaking country.
[name]Jedediah[/name] looks “meh” and [name]Jedadiah[/name] looks “wrong” to me.
