Parenting expert's festive names for babies born over Christmas

With Christmas just a few days away, many people will be looking forward to family celebrations. Others, though, will be counting down to new additions to their families.

The festive season is a special time to welcome a newborn into the world and parents might be trying to think of a name that honours that fact. Now, Allison Banfield, of parenting website ProudHappyMama, has come up with some suggestions that will fit all year round.

Allison said: "If your child is born around the holidays, giving them a festive name can be a lovely way of honouring their birth at such a special time. However, many parents may find it off-putting to have wholly Christmas-inspired names for their kids, because it can limit the creativity and tradition that comes with naming a baby.
