Expecting a baby girl in 2020?

Well, then you might have already started to ponder what her name is going to be.

Even if you’re not sure if you’re having a boy or a girl, it’s a good idea to have some names ready.

With that in mind, have a look at this chat from a Mumsnet forum, where one mum asked other users which names they thought would be the next big thing.

“Which names do people think will start to become popular over the next few years?” she wrote, starting what is proving to be a very popular discussion thread. “Which names have you started to hear more of recently that you think will increase in popularity?”

And the internet tribe of mums delivered, keen to share their preditions based on the kids in their own community.

And so, here are the names they suggested would soon be popping up in a playgroup and montessory class near you – based on their own anecdotal evidence.
