Tracey and Kevin among worst 100 baby names

We all know baby names go through trend cycles, just like fashion and interiors. Something that’s hot in May can be so not in December.

Choosing a child’s name is a big deal. However, some parents take it a step too far in order to make their child's name as unique or creative as possible.

Parentings website Emma’s Diary has published a list of the 100 worst baby names for boys and girls.

It’s hard to believe that there’s some kids crawling around with a name like Spartacus or Chardonnay.

We were surprised there are some common names in the mix too, such as Alice, Mia and Justin.

The site has put up a disclaimer that the list is only for fun and that if parents “love a certain name, then you should use it and forget about what anyone else may think.”
