These are the most popular Bridgerton-inspired baby names

bridgerton

Picking the perfect name for your newborn is no easy feat, and if you're expecting then you've no doubt been trawling the internet for the right moniker - whether it's a royal inspired baby name, a name fitting for a Spring baby or you want to take something from one of your favourite films or TV shows.

And if you've been watching the new Bridgerton prequel, Queen Charlotte, then you might be interested in a more traditional moniker.

Yes, Bridgerton-inspired names are the talk of the "ton" once again - and we're here for it.

A report from The Edit by Silver Cross has listed the most popular names inspired by characters from the Regency drama, looking at data from 1996 to Bridgerton's first season release. Using information from the ONS Baby Names in England and Wales, the names have been ranked to find out which monikers new parents are opting for.

The data was updated in October 2020, just before the Netflix drama landed, so an average was taken from the names to reveal which ones have been growing in popularity over the last two decades.
