MortifiedAdams - Bram was the second most popular boys name in the Netherlands last year. Sounds weird to our ear, and not a fav of mine, but pretty mainstream in other countries.

I quite like most of them. Trend seems to be 'vintage' names coming back into fashion, but some sound like they're named after popular characters. Professor Layton? Dax from Star Trek?

Gutted to see Arthur feature so much. Is it going to be one of those names that says 'born in 2013'?! Hope not :(
