My Granny did this. When she was about eight her next door neighbour had a baby (one of many I assume) and asked my granny to take her for a walk in his pram.

As she was walking off the woman said that my granny might as well take him along to the church and get him christened. She asked the neighbour what his name was and she said ‘you can choose’.

She named him Dennis.

Actually I've changed my girl name from Ciara to Olivia.
if I had a baby girl. She'd have a different name every hour.
