We got the name for Lily Allen's kid a couple of days ago too - Ethel Mary (presumably Cooper).
Love the name Ethel.
I'm a big fan of old fashioned names, if you worked in a nursing home (like I did briefly) 20 years ago you'd have heard fabulous names like Ethel, Mabel, Maud, Elsie, Florence, Arthur, Reginald, Stanley etc.
I was reading an article about the 100 year rule, names popular 100 years ago often become popular again, it's the names of the parents of the generation having the children that are unpopular.
