Ah, New York City.

Possibly the most fabulous city in the world.

The Big Apple. The City That Never Sleeps. The backdrop for thousands of movies and TV series and shopping like you won’t find it anywhere else in the world.

Seen every episode of Sex and the City (twice), mama? These are for you:

1. Tiffany

She’s a real gem!

2. Ellis

He’ll no doubt be as iconic as the island he is named after.

3. Madison

So pretty, so NYC.

4. Bronx

Coolest kid in the class, obvs. And also the baby name of choice for Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz.

5. Waverly

Inspired by the street with the same name.

6. Lincoln

Home of the Metropolitan Opera, the New York City Ballet, the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, Lincoln is also a seriously fab baby name, we think.

7. Carrie

If you get Carrie-ed away, mama.

8. Hudson

The river that serves as a boundary between New York City and New Jersey works great for both boys and girls.

9. Macy

She might be into shopping, ya’know.

10. Tribeca

It’s kind of a little like Rebecca, only miles cooler, of course.

11. Chelsea

A real little lady, no doubt.

12. Lex

Fabulous avenue, fabulous name.

13. Carnegie

Will music run in her veins?

14. Liberty

Possibly the most iconic statue in the world.

15. Astoria

New York Waldorf- hotel and neighborhood in Queens, we think Astoria makes for one chic name too.

16. Brooklyn

Victoria and David Beckham went for this moniker for their eldest son, but we think it’ll work as well for a little girl.

17. Bowery

You can call him ‘Bow’ for short too.
