Get the Edinburgh mug.An Eian is one of the CUTEST guys you will ever meet. is always nice even when he does not like you. He is very outgoing and is one of the only people that really know what love means. You might not make it out alive in a fight against him or just looking at his handsome face. if you think there is a cuter boy that is an invalid answer. he is a very bad boy even if you don't think he is if you met him you would love him

Get the Elian mug.Someone from Edinburgh in Scotland within the UK. Not from the Leith area though. Usually used as an attack on someone - due to the lack of Scots that live in Edinburgh.

Get the Edinburger mug.Eda is a beauty girl who is quiet but don't let that underestimate her because she is actually loud when around her friends. She can be easily irritated but she always makes up for it in the end. Never loose your grip from an eda. She imapacts lives of people she's been around. She is intelligent but doesn't like to show it.
