There are some pretty interesting baby name choices here.
Pepper, Greatness, Lucifer, Sailor and Bee were among the unusual names given to babies born in Scotland last year.
Girl names on the list included Ace, Bee, Anointed, Desire, Journey, Lava, Marigold, Melody-Faith and Diamond.Some parents opted to name their children after famous singers with boys called Drake, Jagger and Bowie and girls named Madonna and Lulu. Places names also proved popular with girls called Africa, Arizona, Holland and Paisley and boys named London, Leith and Memphis.
"On the flip side, life would be incredibly boring if we were all called Mark or Susan - though actually anyone under the age of 40 being called Mark or Susan would be highly unusual these days."Whether you prefer top 10 names like Oliver or Olivia or something well outside the top 100, be reassured that Mumsnet users say babies usually grow into their names making it hard to imagine them being called anything else."For girls, the top name is Olivia, for the second year in a row.
