The most unpopular dad names in UK - check if your baby has one that's fizzling out
Check the list to see if your baby's name is on it. Picking a name for your baby is one of the biggest decisions you'll make, so the pressure is on parents to pick a good one as it is with them for life. It's also hard to pick one that will stand the test of time and many parents-to-be spend months searching through baby name books or browsing online to find the perfect moniker for their little one. However, it seems that some previously common 'dad names' have become so unpopular that they don't look like they will be making a comeback any time soon. Dads celebrating Father's Day this weekend might want to check out our list to see if their name is on the brink of extinction. For many years, names like Craig and Lee were heard all around the UK - but they are at risk of dying out altogether, with few parents choosing them these days, writes The Mirror.

In the 1970s and 1980s, Craig and Lee ranked high on the list when it came to the most popular baby names. In 1974, Craig came in as the 28th most popular baby name for boys, and ten years later, it became even more fashionable, coming in at 19th. These days, only nine babies have been named Craig in the UK, according to recent statistics, which means it's fallen 2306 places in the rankings since 1984. The extinction of so-called 'dad names' goes beyond this though, with the name Lee falling straight to the bottom of the list. In 1974, Lee was the 12th most popular choice, and a decade later, its popularity had only fallen very slightly, to 15th. Now, Lee has fallen a whopping 1127 places on the ranking list - so you aren't too likely to come across a baby boy named this that often. While commiserations should be given to all the Craigs and Lees you know out there - who might not be delighted to hear this news - they are also joined by Garys and Pauls. Gary used to be a top choice for baby boys, but in 2023, only eight babies were bestowed this name. Paul was the number one name in 1974, but has since dropped 464th in the popularity charts. The number one name for baby boys in 1984, Christopher, has also seen a huge drop in popularity, dropping out of the top 100 altogether and hitting the 187th spot - with only 269 babies given this one in 2023. Some boys' names have managed to remain popular through the decades in the UK, however. Names like Thomas, James, Adam, and Alexander all still prove pretty popular with parents to this day, and to a lesser extent David, Daniel, and Michael, which have all dropped from their original high positions in the charts, but remained in the top 100. 1. Paul: fallen 463 places 2. Mark: fallen 264 places 3. David: fallen 62 places 4. Andrew: fallen 290 places 5. Richard: fallen 406 places 6. Christopher: fallen 181 places 7. James: fallen 28 places 8. Simon: fallen 411 places 9. Michael: fallen 79 places 10. Matthew: fallen 127 places 11. Stephen: fallen 654 places 12. Lee: fallen 1127 places 13. John: fallen 145 places 14. Robert: fallen 133 places 15. Darren: fallen 1257 places 16. Daniel: fallen 44 places 17. Steven: fallen 797 places 18. Jason: fallen 156 places 19. Nicholas: fallen 182 places 20. Jonathan: fallen 238 places 21. Ian: fallen 540 places 22. Neil: fallen 907 places 23. Peter: fallen 227 places 24. Stuart: fallen 1,983 places 25. Anthony: fallen 159 places 26. Martin: fallen 275 places 27. Kevin: fallen 183 places 28. Craig: fallen 2,297 places 29. Philip: fallen 410 places 30. Gary: fallen 2,516 places

Nicola Peltz pays tribute to own dad as message to David Beckham speaks volumes
Brooklyn Beckham's wife Nicola Peltz has shared a tribute to her own dad Nelson Peltz to mark Father's Day as she failed to share anything for father-in-law David Beckham Nicola Peltz has shared a touching Father's Day tribute to her dad Nelson Peltz, yet stayed silent on her father-in-law David Beckham. It comes as just another blow to the Beckhams amid their ongoing fallout with Nicola and their eldest son Brooklyn Beckham. She married David and Victoria's firstborn back in 2022 and once appeared to get on with the famous family. However, cracks started to appear following their wedding and things really came to a head when Nicola and Brooklyn, 26, snubbed David's 50th birthday celebrations. The pair failed to publicly acknowledge the football icon's milestone birthday at the time, with them also avoiding attending any celebrations despite flying into London from Los Angeles. Since then, Brooklyn has continued to prove his loyalties to his wife as he failed to post anything when David was awarded a knighthood earlier in the week. Now, on Father's Day Nicola has chose to share the love to her own dad but not her in-law. She shared a series of photos throughout the years with her dad Nelson alongside a touching caption. Nicola wrote: "Happy Father's Day to the greatest dad in the world I am so lucky to be your daughter I love you more than you will ever know. Thank you for always being my constant support I love you beyond words. Happy Father's Day dad." Brooklyn's younger brothers Romeo and Cruz led the way in paying tribute to David for the special day. Cruz shared a snap of him chilling in the sun with his sports star dad and captioned the post saying: " Happy Father's Day, I love you x." Meanwhile, Romeo posted two pictures of him and his father. One was of him as a child with David and he captioned it simply saying: "love you." Wife Victoria was not too far behind when it came to praising David as she wrote: " Happy Father's Day Sir @DavidBeckham!!! We love you so much." In a video clip of David and their children, she penned: "Happy Father's Day to the best daddy there is! You always lead with love and our four beautiful children are a reflection of that. We all love you so much." David shared his own public message to his children as he appeared to hint at the feud. He shared: "My most important & favourite job in life is being a dad... I'm so proud of all of you and like daddy ( sorry boys ) tells you every single day I will always be here for you no matter what... "Mummy thank you for doing the most important part and making me a father there is no greater gift in life than making me a dad... Happy Father's Day... I love you kiddies more than you could imagine." As Victoria and David appear to be extending olive branches through their social media, Brooklyn recently shared a picture of a tattoo that could be perceived as a tell-tale sign about where his loyalties lie. The image shows the tattoo on Brooklyn's upper back that is based on a note Nicola, 30, wrote to him before their wedding in April 2022. Tattooed in a stylish calligraphy font, it reads: "My forever boy. Read this anytime you feel anxious. I want you to know how deeply loved you are. You have the kindest heart I've ever met and hope I never go a day without your love. I think you are so incredible. Just know we can get through it all together if you breathe slow and trust. I love you beyond. Love always, your future wifey." In another show of support to Nicola amid the ongoing drama, Brooklyn shared photos of them on a motorbike. The caption read: "My whole world x I will love you forever x I always choose you baby x you're the most amazing person i know xx me and you forever baby."

Laura welcomed daughter Bonnie, whom she shares with ex Gary, in 2023. The couple had an on-and-off relationship, but things are now on bad terms with Laura even branding Gary a "deadbeat dad". Last month Gary seemingly reignited his feud with his Celebs Go Dating ex Laura after warning that "dads matter". The former Footballers' Wives star made the apparent dig while sharing a throwback video of himself and his son Theodore, six. Gary had been filmed in a restaurant as he sat next to Theodore and they could be seen giggling about "spicy" food together. The actor then gently grabbed his son's cheeks and said: "Look at that face, that gorgeous face.." The video finished with Gary giving Theodore a kiss. Gary, 43, shared the footage on Instagram but seemed to have also made a swipe at Laura, 36, in the process. Laura has taken aim at Gary several times in the past over Bonnie being snapped with her dad rarely. Laura Anderson shows off luxury trip with boyfriend Reigniting the row himself, Gary cryptically captioned his video: "Good enough to eat … Gorgeous Boy #dadsmatter." Replying, one follower asked: "Thought you had a girl with Laura..?" Gary shares Theodore with his ex-wife Natasha. They are also parents to India, 18, Elvis, 12 and Sadie, seven. Gary and Laura met while filming E4's Celebs Go Dating in 2022.

Laura marked Bonnie's birthday in September 2024 as she referenced her "beautiful daughter" When someone asked where her relationship with Gary stands, Laura replied: "No matter what Gary has done and not done I will always respect him as Bonnie's father and I hope one day he is capable of being the father she deserves."
