Settling on that magical moniker for your baby can be tricky enough.
Some people want a totally unique name, to try and make sure that their little one won’t be sharing a moniker with half the class when school time starts.
Other parents are searching for one that is meaningful – but still means that their child won’t be spelling out their name for the rest of their lives.
And there’s about a thousand and one different factors in between that could influence parents’ choice of moniker.
That includes what’s on the telly – or even what’s on at the cinemas. Especially in the wake of the Oscar nominations this week.
