Here Are 15 Baby Names We Predict Will Be HUGE In 2017

Hello there, pregnant mama.

Are you looking for a name for your rapidly growing bump, and want something that feels all sorts of fresh and new? We got you! 2016 has come to an end and we have rounded up some seriously fabulous baby names that we predict will rule in 2017. You're welcome!

1. Belle

With the reboot of Disney's Beauty and the Beast due out in cinemas in the spring, we have a sneaky feeling the lead character's pretty name might just become even more popular around your local playgrounds in the next couple of years.

2. Meghan She could be a potential new princess, you guys! 3. Dream You can laugh all your want, but when a Kardashian calls their kid something, a lot of mamas will follow in their footsteps.

4. Eleven

As in Eleven from Stranger Things.

5. Cohen

The incredible musical legend Leonard Cohen was one of many talents that passed away in 2016, and as an homage to him, we think there might be a lot of little Cohens running around soon.

6. Arya

This year will see the final ever series of Game of Thrones. When dealing with this emotional loss, a future parent may well opt to keep a part of the show in their life forever.

7. Dusty

One of our favourite celebrity baby names of 2016 came courtesy of Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo's baby girl Dusty Rose. And many agreed, so we don't think she'll be the last 'Dusty' for a while.

8. Joe

As Obama's presidency comes to an end (sob!), the world has fallen head over heels with his right-hand man, Joe Biden.

9. Bella

If 2015 was Gigi Hadid's year, 2016 belonged to her lil' sis, Bella.

10. Hillary

She might have lost the election, but we predict her enormous influence will inspire a lot of new mamas in the years to come. 11. Bowie Another musical legend lost last year, but we think parents everywhere will feel inspired and carry his name forward. 12. Moana Disney's newest princess is all about girl power, and we think plenty of new parents will fall in love with her pretty name too.

13. Conor

Conor McGregor is continuing to impress sports fanatics everywhere, and we think many a new parent (read: dad) will want to name their infant sons in his honor.

14. Niagara

Yes, it is a waterfall, but it is also one of Pantone's colours of spring/summer 2017 – and perfect for parents out there looking for something a little different.

15. Michelle

Michelle Obama has won all our hearts as First Lady of the United States, and as we hope and pray she will decide to run for a title even bigger and better than that in four years time, we will settle for knowing that there will no doubt be a lot of baby girls named in her honor across the globe in years to come.
