Choosing your baby’s name is one of the most difficult decisions to make as new parents – your baby’s name in part shapes their very identity and you’re going to hear it every single day!
Should you choose something on trend?
What about boys names for girls?
Place names?
Mashups?
Nature names?
It’s tough! I spent hours scrolling through baby name apps ‘favoriting’ every name possibility I thought could work. I’m sure you probably are too.

Here are over 100 beloved ‘grandma’ names due to make a comeback in 2019!
