What name will you give your baby ?

With the impending birth of Megan Markle and Prince Harry's second child, it leads us to wonder what name the baby will be given. So far this year, we have seen several royal births.

Zara Tindall, the Queens eldest granddaughter gave birth to a Lucas, and Princess Eugenie had a son named August.Both popular and adorable names.

When my eldest was born in the mid 90's, there were no Chloe's around and it was quite a trendy name. Fast forward into the early 2000's and it was top of the popularity list. At the time my Chloe was nearly a Harriet - a favoured name at the time, but was often mistakingly called Cleo. (I rather like that name as it happens).

My son however remained the only Gabriel throughout his school years.

So just what names are trending for 2021?

We did some research and came up with these top ten favourite's voted by the public (with one or two we rather like!).
