Woah!
This is something we would never expect!
Whereas we thought that maybe Prince George would inspire folks in the U.K. to name their little ones after the royal baby, apparently folks found their muse more from television!
Including top shows like Breaking Bad and Homeland!!!
Names like Jesse and Skyler have become VERY popular as well as names such as Dana, Carrie, and Brody!!!
Also the name Aria from Game of Thrones is on the rise, as well! We guess people are hedging their bets since winter IS coming!
The information, from BabyCentre, consists of the 21,000 British babies born this year.
Here’s what the editor of BabyCentre said:
├óΓé¼┼ôInspiration for your baby’s name can come from anywhere, which is why a show like Breaking Bad, which has been hugely popular, has influenced naming choices this year. Parents fear being labelled Kate copycats but will take inspiration from well-known characters in popular TV shows or films.├óΓé¼┬¥
