Charlotte Crosby forced to do baby name U-turn after discovering something very awkward

Charlotte Crosby was forced to change her desired baby name after realising there was a rather crude meaning behind it.

The former Geordie Shore star, 31, is expecting her first child with boyfriend, Jake Ankers, and the pair had picked out the perfect name for their bundle of joy, before realising that the name actually meant 'prostitute'.

The reality TV star lifted the lid on her unborn daughter's name on the latest episode of her podcast, where she admitted that she's had the name picked out since the second month of her pregnancy.

The expectant mum believes that with the name she has chosen for her little girl, it will catapult her on the path of stardom as she predicts that her daughter will be a huge pop star.

However, before settling on the yet-to-be-revealed name, Charlotte was planning on calling her daughter something completely different.

"There was one name that we had, but we didn't end up going for it in the end," the reality TV star explained on her podcast.

"Don't judge, but we wanted to call her, Harla. I thought it was quite individual, but then I researched the name 'Harlot' and I realised that it meant prostitute," she added.

In biblical times, is a woman was described as a 'harlot', it meant she was looked down upon for having many casual sexual encounters or relationships.

After doing a name u-turn, Charlotte couldn't be any happier with her new choice.

"But the new name is way better. It's so cute, it's absolutely gorgeous, and I love it," she told her podcast followers.

It comes after the Geordie Shore star revealed that she has booked herself in for a C-section after suffering PTSD from a scary ectopic pregnancy back in 2016.

“I’ve never really been keen to push a baby out of my vagina. I’m too scared to have a natural birth,” she told new! magazine.

“There’s always been something scary about it for me and when I had the ectopic pregnancy it scared me even more.

“Because I went through the horrendous time where I almost died, I know how things can go drastically wrong.”
