Bookmakers make Charlotte and James the favourites for Boris Johnson and Carrie Symonds’ baby name – ahead of Stanley, Winston and Emmeline

  • Charlotte and James are hailed by bookmakers as names for PM’s expected baby
  • Boris Johnson has got engaged to Carrie Symonds, 31, and is expecting his baby
  • Top names include Winston based on Churchill and Stanley after the PM’s father

Charlotte, James and even Winston are among the favourite odds for the Prime Minister’s expected baby.

Boris Johnson and Carrie Symonds have announced that they are expecting a baby and that they have got engaged.

A spokesperson for the couple said: ‘The Prime Minister and Miss Symonds are very pleased to announce their engagement and that they are expecting a baby in the early summer.’

Mr Johnson, 55, and Miss Symonds, 31, made history as the first unmarried couple to officially live together in Downing Street when they moved in last year.

Ms Symonds, a conservationist and former Conservative Party communications chief, first found herself making headlines when she was romantically linked to Mr Johnson earlier in 2019.

Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: ‘Baby Boris is due later this year and punters are already guessing which name the PM and his wife-to-be will opt for. As things stand Charlotte and James head the betting with a Baby Brexit seemingly unlikely at 1000/1.’

So what are the favourite odds for baby names?
