Personally, I hear about quite a few babies and little ones because I'm a teacher in a large primary school. There are usually a couple of staff on maternity leave - it's been more like four or five in the past year - and the rest are younger siblings of the school children.

My Nov 25 baby is Dean.

I can add to this now I've discovered/remembered more names 😅

In addition to Florence, Penelope and Albert (not Alfred as I listed previously) we also have Benjamin, Archie, Xander, Freya and Hardy.

Three more due in the next 2-3 months.

Are you searching for inspiration @amy480 ?
