'I want to give my daughter a boy's name inspired by TV show - people say I'm mad'

A pregnant woman says she now toying with the idea of giving her unborn baby daughter a boy's name inspired by a TV show, and many have begged her to reconsider.

The expectant mother, who has previously always had girls, is currently pregnant with what she says will be her final baby. Her partner has their heart set on the name Michael for a boy, and she's begun to wonder whether or not this might also work for a girl.

The thought came to her while watching Derry Girls, which was first broadcast on Channel 4 and later picked up by Netflix, which of course features Siobhán McSweeney as the stern yet hilarious headmistress of Our Lady Immaculate College, Sister Michael.
