Hey mums and dads, if you’re having a baby soon you might want to help bring these names back from the brink of extinction, before it’s too late.
BabyCentre have discovered parents are shying away from baby names made popular in the 1980s, leaving the likes of Ian, Donna and Karen, Frank, Dorothy and Ricky on the edge of extinction forever.
They also include,
Girls
Cilla
Bertha
Cynthia
Janice
Anita
Marcia
Mildred
Dorothy
Edna
Bonnie
Cindy (Sindy)
Donna
Gail
Karen
Boys
Ian (Iain)
Frank
Clarence
Ricky
Edmund
Gus
Roger
Bertram
Clive
Roald
So if any of these names are a family tradition you might want to start giving them a plug to bring them back into the record books.
