Baby Names from Downton Abbey


You love their clothes, but do you love any of their names enough to bestow one on your newborn? Between the characters' names and the actors who play them, there are plenty of baby name possibilities coming from everyone's favorite Masterpiece Theater. Here are a few:

Boys
  • Hugh (as in Hugh Bonneville who plays Earl of Grantham)
  • Charles (Carson, that is)
  • Thomas (I know, he's a bad guy--sometimes, but Thomas is a good, solid name. It's also the actor's name who plays William, if that makes you feel any better)
  • Matthew (Crawley, of course)
  • Brendan (as in Brendan Coyle who plays Bates)
Girls
  • Anna (such a likeable character)
  • Mary (played by Michelle Dockery)
  • Phyllis (the actress who plays Mrs. Hughes. This name is set for a comeback, I'm telling you)
  • Maggie (the beloved Maggie Smith)
  • Sophie (as in the adorable Sophie McShera who plays Daisy)
Who did I miss?
