Bridgerton returns to Netflix today with part two of season four landing on the streaming service this morning. The show has become such a huge hit that it's responsible for the return of the vintage baby name trend.
The period drama has become one of the most beloved Netflix shows, making actors Nicola Coughlan and Jonathan Bailey household names. It's a show you can't help but binge-watch, but the Netflix series isn't just taking over streaming charts; it's also influencing baby name trends.
Vintage names are making quite the comeback, with parents opting for names like Eloise, Mabel, Isabel, and Florence.
However, there's one vintage baby name from the show that's completely won us over, and that's Daphne.
The name Daphne has grown in popularity in recent years, and we're not surprised to see its spike in popularity.
The name Daphne is of Greek origin and means 'laurel or bay tree.'
It's a charming option for your baby girl, and a timeless name that was most popular during the 1930s.
If you're looking for a baby name that is a little bit more unique, but still incredibly classy, then this is the one for you.
What Bridgerton-inspired baby name is your favourite?
