Tell Me Your Favourite Baby Names Of All Time, And I’ll Guess The Decade You Were Born In With Scary Accuracy

Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus?

I've always been obsessed with names. I loved baby names long before I ever considered having an actual baby. I kept running lists of my favourites...like I was preparing for a family of ummm....37?!? For years, I thought it was the universe telling me I was destined to be a mom. But when my maternal instinct showed up almost a decade later than everyone else's, I had a realization: Oh... maybe I'm just a writer. Turns out, fictional characters need names too, and they don't even need you to change their diapers.

So whether you've had a running list of baby names since you were 12, or you struggled to come up with anything more creative than "Cat" to name your cat, I want to know your favourite names. Here's how it works: I'll show you six names at a time, and you just pick your favourite. By the end, I'll be able to pinpoint the decade you were born...or, at the very least, the generation your taste in names belongs to. Ready? Let's go...

So, was I right? If I wasn't, then you like to go against the grain of your decade's trends, and honestly, good for you. Now, tell me in the comments what your favourite baby name EVER is.
