Lately, shorter names, often sporting just one syllable, has been quite the trend among parents when naming their babies.
But we think there is a lot to be said for longer names too, mamas, so don’t shy away from this when selecting a moniker for your brand new bundle. For starters, they are wonderfully versatile, and lend themselves perfect to all sorts of cute nice-names.
If you are still a little unsure, just look at some of our current favourite – and lovely – names:
1. Seraphina
LOVE this name (that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner also opted for when naming their second daughter!).
2. Jameson
Because James is so done to death by now.
3. Cordelia
How stunning is this name?!
4. Valentino
For all you fashion loving mamas out there!
5. Felicity
Cute and quirky!
6. Sebastian
Classic and cool.
7. Marielle
We think this name is all sorts of pretty.
8. Maximus
You can call him ‘Max’ or ‘Maxie’ for shorts, obvs.
9. Petronella
We think this name sounds all sorts of IT-girl, and you can shorten it to the adorably cute “Nella” too!
10. Constantine
So sleek.
11. Anastasia
Forget about the “50 shades” reference, we think Anastasia is one chic moniker.
12. Nathaniel
We love how old-school and fabulous this name sounds.
