Forget passing the Prime Minister test and matching appropriately with your surname: in our books, the hardest part of choosing a baby name is finding something that both you and your partner like.
Whether you’re leaning towards one of the most popular baby names of 2018 or the 100-year-old names set to make a comeback, a new app matches your top choices with your partner’s, and this pregnant writer can’t get enough of it.Â
It’s called Kinder, and it works just like Tinder – except instead of swiping right on potential love interests, you’re presented with baby names to say yay or nay to. You can search according to country of origin or gender – and whenever you match with a name your partner also likes, the app lets you know.
