Everyone wants their child to have the best start in life but can picking the right baby name help your child become rich?
A new study has revealed names for boys and girls linked to higher salaries.
VIP concierge service HushHush.com analysed its internal data, as well as public information such as the Sunday Times Rich List, to highlight the names most common among millionaires.
The list includes multiple royal names, such as Edward, William, Elizabeth and Victoria, as well as many other traditional names but doesn't include the latest royal addition Archie.
The top millionaire baby boy name is David followed by Edward, William, John and then Mark.
For baby girls Alice is most likely to grow up a millionaire followed by Kate, Lily, Mary and then Victoria.
David and John are both common names at the top of this year’s Sunday Times Rich List.
David Reuben and Sir David Barclay are worth a combined £26.664billion, while John Fredriksen and John Coates have amassed a £14.399bn fortune.
According to internal data from HushHush.com, Edward is the most common male name among its customers, while Alice is the most common forename among its female clientele.

Aaron Harpin, founder of HushHush.com, said: “Every parent wants to give their child the best start in life, and that begins with picking a name! It’s an important and often challenging thing to do, and this list aims to give mums and dads-to-be some inspiration for names that may give them a greater chance of becoming a millionaire in the future.
“It’s almost a self-fulfilling prophecy from birth – giving your child a successful sounding may inspire them to strive for success throughout their life. So, if you’re about to welcome your own bundle of joy, you may want to give these names some careful consideration”
