Baby

There is an actual list of endangered baby names... Does your little one's feature?

So, apparently, there is a list of 24 names – boys and girls – that are about to become extinct, and we're actually a little sad about the whole thing. 

While we're fond of a modern name or two here at MagicMum, our heart really lies with a good old-fashioned moniker. 

You can't beat a Donna or a Karen, can you?

But it's these types of names that are being pushed to the end of a long list of baby names, and will eventually fade away into the background forever… (us dramatic?)

The following names were identified by BabyCentre, who hasn't registered them in their database so far this year – brace yourself!
