Ok, I adore the name Kate and have done for a number of years. Had my last ds been a girl, he would have been a Kate.
I've started a thread in baby names as Im slightly torn between Kate and Gabriella for a girl for DC3.
It had never, ever crossed my mind for one second that this name would spike next year, when this baby is due, because of the royal wedding until it was suggested by some helpful mumnetters. This was also said on my ante natal group thread. After a quick google, I then found this and others like it:

Surely, there is no way on this earth that people are going to start naming their daughters a particular name just because shes marrying Prince William? Im probably being a little OTT about this but honestly, I cant fathom it for a second .
Is it because Im not in the UK?
