If you’re expecting a little bundle this summer maybe one of these random names will suit you. Or suit your baby as the case may be.
Baby boy: Winston; from the Old English, winnan, ‘to win, gain by working, defeat, conquer’, and tun, ‘town, village’, thus ‘victorious town’. Winston became a first name only after Sir Winston Churchill was given his mother’s maiden name in 1620.
Baby girl:Â Jasmin, from the Persian and Arabic, yasmin, ‘an olive flower’.
I feel like we’ve had Jasmin turn up before in our random names, but I’m not sure. I like Jasmin to a point. It’s a pretty name for sure, but not exactly my style. It’s not a name I don’t like though. Winston, I don’t love. I think there’s too much cigarette association at this point.
What do you think? Â
