Why all the excitement about what David Cameron would call their baby but not what Ed Miliband's will be? I am dying to find out...

[yellowflowers]

Any suggestions. I reckon Jacob.

Could be Guy or Guido for that seasonal flavour?

I'll lay bets it isn't going to be Richard Edward

My vote goes with Solomon or Tristram

Something Northern, working class and straightforward. Jack/John/Bill etc.

considering his affiliations with the unions and the whole taking labour back to its roots thing I'd agree with clemetteattlee. Maybe Arthur (Scargill) or Michael (Foot)?

He has distanced himself of the unions. After they voted for him....

I laughed so hard tea shot out my nose at the comment on one site reporting the new arrival that the older brother should be feeling a bit anxious...

Ethan Joel Edward

Is his first son a Miliband?

Hopefully this one will be a Thornton.

I know, I know, they're getting married, (boooo to political peer pressure) but I kind of hope she'll keep her name.

I am thoroughly confused. I met Ed Miliband just over a year ago, and at the time someone told me they were expecting a baby. Someone please tell me they haven't had (a) a 12-month pregnancy; (b) two babies within 13 months of each other.

Re names I vote for Blair Anthony.

Arf.

Their eldest is 18 months old.

In which case, my source must be psychic...how spooky!

I'll go with Isaac or Jacob. I reckon David will be the middle name by way of apology for fucking up his life.

Matthew or Luke

George or Robert

does it need to be jewish? is ed jewish? [clulss]

I think Eli

or norbert

I thoguth he was an aetheist who is living in sin having illegitmate children not named on his first son's birth cert. I doubt he'll be picking Jewish names and his girl friend isn't Jewish anyway by birth so presumably his children aren't technically Jewish anyway.

I would like to know how they chose the older baby's name (Daniel, a Jewish name originally) and whether it has family significance.

I was going to say Elijah but not sure it goes with Daniel?

Im going for
Trevor
Keith
Dennis
Brian
Duane
Wayne
Brooklyn
Shia
River
Derek

or

Bernard (my personal fav)

Bob.

His father was originally called Adolphe - might he go for that?!

I was actually going to say Daniel - didn't realise they already had a son.

I will go will Joseph, Benjamin or Adam.

William
Christopher
Nathan
Gordon
Tony

Henry
Keir
James
Zac
Louis
Justin
Charlie

ROFL at massive selection of Jewish names on here - has he suddenly had a wave of faith come over him or something?

I hope he's going to get an eccentric Cornish place name as a middle name too. May I suggest Charlie Grumbla Milliband? Or perhaps James Karl David London-Apprentice Milliband.

If he had been a girl Millicent would have worked well.

Milliband is Jewish. The boy will probably be named after a deceased grandfather, If no deceased grandfathers, then uncles or great Uncles. Pretty much a good way of narrowing down names, however you would need the families genealogy to do it that way.

Definitely a name with a Hebrew Anglicisation, most of the guesses would be close,particularly because I am unsure whether Justine is Jewish
