We've got a shortlist for both boys and girls names but I have an overwhelming feeling that we've forgotten some that we'd absolutely love and the urge to make sure I've not missed something and regret it later. Hormones eh. So to that end, what are your favourite baby names? Don't care if they're traditional, out there, boring, dated etc. Whatever names you love, throw them at me!

Baby hasn't been born yet but we have found we're having a girl so that narrows it down. We've got a shortlist but still not settled on anything!
