These names are not so trendy any more
Naming a baby isn't easy - especially if your due date is drawing near and you're feeling under pressure. Thankfully, there are name sites dedicated to this exact conundrum to help parents make the right choice.
But before you pick anything, did you know there are names that could be dying out in popularity - and very soon? Each year, BabyCenter highlights the most popular baby names, but what about the names that aren't so trendy?

Looking at names which have dropped off within the last year, they spotted the beginning of the end for "-aden" boy names like Jaden and Kaden. They also noted that royal names have taken a step back.

In their research, they said: "Catherine, Anne, Phillip, Albert, and Edward – all names of British royal family members in recent history – each tumbled more than 100 spots. Catherine took the biggest fall, though, dropping 221 spots."
The naming experts further share that 80s and 90s names are falling off the charts with 'nickname' names instead growing in popularity. This refers to names such as Lexi, for Alexandra, and Archie for Archibald - son of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Kate Middleton's right hand woman makes bombshell move after 15 years of loyal service

Kate Middleton's right hand woman, Natasha Archer, has been her personal assistant since 2010. Kate Middleton's right hand woman has reportedly left her service after 15 years. Natasha Archer is set to depart Kensington Palace after 15 years of dedicated service to the Princess of Wales, according to People. Known by those close to her as "Tash," Archer, 37, joined the Royal Family's staff in 2010 as a personal assistant to Prince William and Kate Middleton, who got engaged that same year. After taking on the role, Archer became a key part of Kate's most trusted team and was known as her unofficial stylist. ‌ She was recently the senior private executive assistant to the Prince and Princess of Wales. With a sharp eye for British fashion, Archer took on a leading role in curating the future Queen's wardrobe ahead of several royal engagements and tours, including Australia and New Zealand where Kate wore 24 outfits in 19 days, the Mirror reports. ‌ Archer helped Kate emerge as a prominent wearer of popular designers including Alexander McQueen and Kenny Packham. Kate's style influenced many others, with the princess becoming a fashion phenomenon and the apparent "Kate Middleton Effect" resulting in any item she wore selling out shortly afterwards. In a bold first for a royal, Archie ended up convincing William to wear a traditional sherwani to a 2019 reception in Pakistan. ‌ She also worked alongside Kate to upscale several of her dresses in an effort to become more environmentally conscious, which led to her renting a dress for the Earthshot Prize Awards in Boston, Massachusetts, in 2022. Archer also joined the Princess of Wales during a difficult five-hour hike in the mountainous country of Bhutan in 2016, in case the princess needed an outfit change. ‌ Not only has Archer been by Kate's side for trips and tours, she was also on hand at St Mary's Hospital in 2013 when Kate and William welcomed their first child, Prince George. Natasha had been there to assist Kate by handing over an outfit and baby seat shortly after the Wales' eldest child was born. The 37-year-old then went on to have some baby joy of her own and is now a mum of two after she married Getty royal photographer Chris Jackson in 2017. ‌ She was then promoted in 2022 and led a senior private executive assistant role. While William and Kate remain focused on their royal duties, Archer is now moving onto her next chapter after fifteen years. Meanwhile, the Princess of Wales is slowly easing her way back into public life after being diagnosed with cancer last year. The future Queen is understood to be trying to find the right balance as she fully returns to public-facing engagements.
