據(jù)說(shuō)，2018年這些寶寶英文名會(huì)火

Choosing your baby's name is among the biggest decisions you will make, and something that will be with your child for life.

給孩子取名是你將作的最重大的決定之一，名字將伴隨孩子的一生。

And while past years have included rather unusual choices including Apple (think Gwyneth Paltrow) and even Bear (think Cheryl and Liam Payne), 2018 looks set to be a rather more traditional one in nurseries around the country.

盡管在過(guò)去幾年，一些不同尋常的名字流行起來(lái)，比如Apple(蘋(píng)果，格溫妮絲-帕特洛兒子的名字)和Bear(小熊，謝麗爾和利亞姆-佩恩兒子的名字)，2018年全球又刮起了傳統(tǒng)取名風(fēng)。

With names ending in 'a' such as Amelia and Ella predicted to be popular for little girls, monikers starting with 'R' or 'Th' such as Reuben or Theo are set to be top choices for boys.

對(duì)女寶寶來(lái)說(shuō)，明年以“a”結(jié)尾的名字將最受歡迎，比如Amelia(阿梅利亞)和Ella(艾拉)。對(duì)男寶寶來(lái)說(shuō)，以“R”或“Th”開(kāi)頭的名字會(huì)成為首選，比如Reuben(魯賓)和Theo (特奧)。

But despite the rather classic nature of the year's trend, there will still be a twist - in the form of more gender neutral names.

盡管明年的取名趨勢(shì)回歸傳統(tǒng)，但也有例外，比如出現(xiàn)了更多的中性化名字。

With gender neutral clothing promoted by the likes of Jaden Smith for Louis Vuitton rising in popularity, unisex names look set to follow.

中性服裝越來(lái)越流行，路易-威登還邀請(qǐng)賈登-史密斯拍攝了中性服裝廣告，男女皆宜的名字看來(lái)也要跟隨這一潮流。

Andy, Max, Alex and Charlie are all on the list, with female celebrities boasting the name including actress Andie MacDowell and former Eastenders star Charlie Brooks.

流行的中性名字榜單上有Andy(安迪)、Max(馬克斯)、Alex(亞歷克斯)和Charlie(查理)。安迪-麥克道威爾、曾出演《東區(qū)人》的查理-布魯克斯等女明星都取了這類(lèi)名字。

And the year's trend of Royal-inspired names looks set to continue, with Meghan and Harry top contenders after the announcement of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's engagement.

效仿王室成員名字的風(fēng)潮仍將持續(xù)。哈里王子宣布和梅根-馬克爾訂婚后，他們的名字也脫穎而出。

Girls' names such as Isabella, Mia and Harry Potter-inspired Luna also feature highly on the lists of mothers-to-be.

Isabella(伊莎貝拉)、Mia(米婭)、受“哈利-波特”啟發(fā)的Luna(盧娜)等女孩名也很受準(zhǔn)媽媽們推崇。
