Edd, mostly referred to by his nickname "Double D," is one of the three protagonists in Ed, Edd n Eddy. He is physically the weakest but the most intelligent member of the Eds.
Young Edd[]
A younger version of Edd was seen in "Every Which Way But Ed," wearing a red/orange shirt, purple overalls, and a slightly oversized black ski hat. He also has two big front teeth and is smart and polite like his older self.
In the same episode, it is revealed that Edd moved into Peach Creek as a toddler and met Ed and Eddy when they tried to scam him.
Old Edd[]
Old Edd was first seen in "Take This Ed and Shove It." He wears a normal red shirt, pulled up purple pants with a belt, and is still in possession of the same black hat. His skin has also turned pasty and floppy.
His old age seems to have made him a little more scatterbrained, as he often talks about things that have little or no relevance to the current situation, once ruminating on his cat when the subject at hand was a dusty desk.
In a deleted scene, it was shown that he is married to an obese Marie Kanker.
Edd in FusionFall[]
Edd makes no appearance in the future world. In the past world, he is one of the optional guides.
He set up the plan to make a cardboard fortress around the Cul-de-Sac to protect it from the monsters outside. Edd's quests in the game are creating a weapon of the "Thingamajig" and locating Ed's whereabouts. His main goal is locating and destroying a cursed piece of candy.
Edd is located in Peach Creek Commons.

Trivia[]
- Danny Antonucci has said that Edd is mostly based on his youth. During his youth, he apparently loved to be organized, neurotic, and analytical. He also mentioned that Edd's parents' sticky note practice is based on his actual parents.
- Edd's nickname is variously spelled as "Double D" and "Double Dee". Edd himself appears to favor the latter spelling, as he uses it on his Valentine's card to Eddy in Hanky Panky Hullabaloo.
- Edd's eye color is a blue green, as seen on the box art of Ed, Edd n Eddy - The Mis-Edventures.
- Edd mentions in "A Fistful of Ed" that he is a pacifist.
- Edd's shoe size is five, as revealed in "A Case of Ed".
- Edd was first shown playing a pedal steel guitar in "Avast Ye Eds". Even though he dislikes the instrument, he is shown to be highly skilled at playing it. He can be seen playing it in "Brother, Can You Spare an Ed?" "Rambling Ed," and "Little Ed Blue."
- His stage name, "88 Fingers Edward" is a reference to either the Chicago punk band 88 Fingers Louie, or The Flintstones gangster character, "88 Fingers Louie", who sells pianos.
- Edd, Rolf, and the Kanker Sisters are the only characters known to have been born outside Peach Creek.
- Edd's middle name is "Marian," as revealed in "Your Ed Here."
- In the Polish dub of the show, Edd is called "Chudy Edd" ("Slim Edd"). This is because Polish dub directors believed the direct translation of "Double D," "Podwójny D," would be too long.
- In "Take This Ed and Shove It," Old Edd mentions that he has a pet cat named Niels Bohr, a reference to the Danish physicist of the same name.
- Little is known for certain about what is under Edd's hat. In "From Here to Ed", Edd is so desperate to keep it a secret, that Eddy was able to blackmail Edd into helping him get revenge on Kevin by threatening to tell the cul-de-sac kids what was under Edd's hat.
- The "blonde hair" theory originates from a facetious interview once present on the now defunct A.K.A. Cartoon website, in which a staff member was asked for his opinion.
- In the same interview, Samuel Vincent, Edd's voice actor, suggested in a tongue-in-cheek manner that a conjoined twin may be underneath Edd's hat.
- The "cornrow" theory for Edd originates from a Cartoon Network game called "Lunchroom Rumble." The game, however, is not considered canon, as it was not made by A.K.A. Cartoon.
- In Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show, Edd's hat comes off for a short while, exposing the top of his head (unseen to viewers) for the second time in the series. Based on Ed and Eddy's reactions, especially Ed saying, "Does it hurt, Double D?" it is possible that he has a scar or deformity beneath his hat. However, it's possible that Ed and Eddy could've been joking about what they were seeing.
- According to a special feature on the Ed, Edd n Eddy Vol. 1: Edifying Ed-ventures DVD, Plank describes Edd as a "ladies' man."
- Multiple references in the show about the "dodgeball incident" indicate that Edd seems to have been scarred psychologically—and perhaps physically—by a mysterious incident involving dodgeball.
- Edd has the ability to play a number of instruments:
- A pedal steel guitar (in "Avast Ye Eds")
- Bongos (in "Boys Will Be Eds")
- A xylophone (in "Smile for the Ed")
- Edd appeared in an off-channel (shown on other channels outside Cartoon Network such as Nickelodeon) promo for Cartoon Cartoon Fridays along with Johnny Bravo, I.R. Baboon, Buttercup, and Courage. Edd explained what the block was about while breaking the 4th wall several times by stating "We're not even supposed to be on this channel.", pulling down a screen showing a scene from a promo for the block, and sticking the Cartoon Network logo on the screen at the end.
- Edd appeared in OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes, in the episode "Crossover Nexus". In it, he had a non-speaking cameo, representing the series Ed, Edd n Eddy.
- Edd was a nonplayable character in the 2018 mobile game, Cartoon Network: Match Land; his role being the owner of Candy Machine, a shop from the game itself.
- Edd's hat appears in Kleptocats: Cartoon Network as a wardrobe accessory.
