Best name ideas (so far) for the new Cameron baby

By Tim Montgomerie

From Patrick Hennessy: Nicola to cement the Coalition.

Martin Sewell was more worried about placating the Right with his recommendation of Boudicca.

Thinking of the headline-writers, Corporeal suggested Pam Cam... and Cardinal Sin, similarly inspired, offered Camilla, as in Cam Cam. And if the PM wanted his child to be known as WebCam, the best anyone could think of was Webster!

In honour of the Beckham's decision to name one of their kids Brooklyn (although that might have been a conception rather than bith influence) some looked for a Cornish name. Julia Manning thought of Tamsin (and, yes, it abbreviates to Tam Cam). Andrew Landriani was on the same lines: "Tamara? After all they 'crossed the Tamar' to see her into this world and in a particularly beautiful part of it." Hellboy went the whole Cornish hog with Patsy/Pasty!

Diaz, for something glitzy, thought robliveanduncut.

SuperBlue thought Antonia would be an appropriate tribute to Tony Abbott's election result.

Also from Patrick Hennessy: Waynetta to support the England 2018 bid.

Unconfirmed rumours say the Treasury is insisting on Prudence, or simply Pru in these times of cuts.
