Billie Eilish is inspiring a new wave of baby names.Billie Eilish has shared a surprising revelation about her first name. In an interview with British Vogue, the singer chatted to fellow star Idris Elba about whether she used to be “proud” or “embarrassed” of her moniker growing up. The Grammy award-winning musician didn’t hold back and revealed she “absolutely hated” her name when she was a child – particularly as other people would say they thought it was a “boy’s name”.“That’s all I ever heard every day of my life. I remember just being so mad, and all I wanted was to have a girly name, like Violet or like Lavender, some sort of, you know, pretty flowery name,” she continued.Yet now she’s learned to love it and said “there’s no other name in the universe that could be my name besides Billie”.I’ll say!The Birds Of A Feather singer is inspiring a new generation of babies called Billie – and is probably also contributing to a rise in interest for gender neutral baby names.
