An old friend in the US has named her baby daughter McCaa. The only reason I know it's a girl is because her middle name is Laura!

I know a Charnelle - except it's spelt nothing like you'd expect

its not really odd but pretty funny. i was born in 1986 and there was a baby boy in the ward beside me with a leather jacket on him called george michael.

i know a girl called sweetpea. i think thats a bit cheesy.

(although i'd secretly like to call a boy virgil after a chimpanzee puppet i used to have when i was a kid)
