Palma

[Yorkiepud2333]

Chosen by Michelle keegan and Mark Wright for a baby girl.
whats your thoughts?

Even Mumsnet "similar" threads suggestions are all about Spanish locations....

Phew, X post.

I don’t like it, but it’s definitely not the worst celebrity baby name

I hate palma violets so no.

I’m sure they did their pregnancy announcement on a beach in Mallorca because it’s one of their favourite places, so Palma obviously has a special meaning to them.

It wouldn’t be my choice of name, but it’s no worse than Brooklyn, Hudson, India etc imo.

Parma violets even.

But either way still no. Because you'll have idiots like me comparing to Parma violets

They go to majorca a lot so I suspect it is due to the place

Palma Wright.
Its awful.

and it looks terrible written down.

Doesn’t sound too out there. What’s your concern? Do you see these people a lot? Do you think your children will bully them for their name? If so, maybe take a look at your parenting style. Personally I could not really give toss about what some random people named their child. Unless you’ve just started this thread for people to pile on and make you feel better about whatever you’ve called your children?

Awful name imo, but I guess it may have special meaning to them.

Clearly a very much wanted baby, so I'm pleased for them. It wouldn't be the celebrity thing to call her Olivia I guess.

Yes exactly. Super naff

At least it's not overused

Bloody awful.

I’m not keen. It’s not atrocious but all of the thousands of lovely girls names and they choose Palms?

If it is pronounced Pal ma, I really like it

Palma is a fairly common, but perhaps a little dated, name in Spain. I think it’s pretty but doesn’t work with the surname Wright.

It wouldn't be my choice but there are far worse children's names around. I think it's ok and not ridiculous.

I thought of the sweets from my childhood.... Parma violets 🤩🤣

Nope don’t like it. A bit ridiculous to be honest.

It will be soon! I predict an influx of baby Palmas soon.

Horrendous. Weirdly if you stick an o in it you get Paloma, which I think is lovely. Mad how one letter makes such a difference.

I knew a Palma once! Wouldn’t be my choice but I do like it. And at least it can’t be shortened so an insufferable ‘ie’ nickname.

Means dove in Spanish (and also pigeon hahaha)
lovely name though

I was thinking the exact same thing. So close to being a lovely name. Paloma was right there!

I wouldn’t call my child Palma however I think it’s a beautiful name
