New mum Lucy shared: “I kept adding names to a list, so we had it set in stone ages which is good because I’m usually indecisive. I liked quite a lot of names Ryan didn’t.
Some of them were a bit out there, like Fox.” Sonny does have a sweet meaning behind it, as the moniker means "son". It is of British origin and is most commonly a male name, according to The Bump, which has seen a spike in popularity over recent years.
Meanwhile the tot's middle name, Jude, is a gender neutral moniker, most commonly used for boys, of Greek origin, which means "praised". Never miss a celebrity exclusive again! Become an OK!
