''All of these can go either as a first or a second name - but it's getting harder to name children for me.''
Despite being obsessed with the monikers, Nara added that she wouldn't be using these picks for their next child - which means fans will have to keep waiting for an update.
Are Unique Baby Names Worth The Hassle?
YOU may think having a unique name helps you to stand out, but is it all it's cracked up to be?
Fabulous' Deputy Editor
When I was a child, all I wanted was one of those personalised keyrings with my name on it.
But no joy, the closest I could find was Rosie, Joseph (not great for a little girl) and Joanne.
Josie is short for Josephine, which is a French name, and I managed to reach my 20s without ever meeting anyone who shared it.
When I try to introduce myself to people, I get all sorts of random things - like Tracey and Stacey - which can be pretty annoying.
Although I have come into contact with a couple of Josies over the last year - there seems to be a few of us around my age - it's still a much rarer name than most of my friends have.
On the whole I don't mind it, at least it's not rude or crazily spelt.
And it means I can get away with 'doing a Cheryl' and just referring to myself as Josie.
I'm getting married this year and some friends are shocked that I'm changing my surname, as it's not seen as very cool or feminist to do so these days, but I explain to them that I'm not that attached to Griffiths as I'd always just say 'hi it's Josie' when ringing a mate up.
I think it's nice to be unique and I'll definitely try and replicate this when naming my own kids.
It's the rude names you've got to watch out for, so after nine years as a lifestyle journalist I'll definitely be avoiding those.
'You gave your kids usernames'
Sadly for the couple, the names weren't a major hit amongst social media users, a whopping 19k of whom flooded to comments to slam the two.
One wondered: ''are you naming an elf on the shelf or a child?''
Another joked: '''My boy slim easy' like he's a rapper.''
''you gave your kids usernames,'' someone else thought.
''At this point, why don't you call a strawberry shortcake?'' a fourth jokingly advised.
''Do you realize they will be adults some day,'' a concerned viewer reminded.

THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 - and it was an instant hit. Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland's first 'shopping frenzy'. During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne's 'Better Value' bargains. Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 - starting with apples and oranges. The retailer said: "Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town. "Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong. "Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas." The retailer's first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960. They added: "In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed. "Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England." Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people. 4 Shoppers can choose from three styles Credit: 4 The cute set is available in Dunnes Stores Credit: Garrett White - Commissioned by The Sun Dublin Advertisement

A MUM has clapped back at trolls who slammed her for letting her seven-year-old daughter get a spray tan.

I used tanning nasal sprays twice but they've left me with permanent skin damage, they made me feel dizzy & nauseous too - says former Miss GB Still, the backlash kept coming, with more parents commenting things like 'Please stop' and 'Why are we normalising this?'

One supporter wrote: 'Spray tan better than getting a sun tan and skin cancer – I say go for it!'

Why the 'Tanning Mitt Painting' trend isn't as good as it seems Painting door frames and banisters with a tanning mitt is a DIY trend everyone is obsessing over on social media. But Rebecca Miller, Fabulous' Associate Editor, and DIY-enthusiast reveals why you should put down the tanning mitt, and revert back to the old-fashioned paintbrushes and rollers for your next painting project. "A tanning mitt might be a cost-effective solution to painting your home, but it can't compete with a traditional paintbrush or roller. Tanning mitts offer a smooth, even application, but it doesn't compare to the professional and precise finish of a brush or roller. When it comes to painting detailed areas, like edges and corners, a paintbrush is the best tool for a job. Equally, if you are applying a new paint colour, you might need several coats of paint, and a tanning mitt can only provide very thin coats of paint - meaning you'd be spending more hours on the job! Painting brushes and rollers are also much easier to clean and are longer lasting. Tanning mitts usually need throwing out after one use which is neither good for the planet nor your wallet."
