    Winning?

    When it comes to picking baby names, there are so many things to think about. Do you go for one of these almost-extinct monikers? Do you use the royals as name-spiration? Or do you attempt to predict the trends in advance and give your baby something from the list of popular 2028 names?

    It can be tough to decide on the perfect one - but now there's something else to think about when it comes to picking.

    Linda Rosenkrantz at Nameberry.com told Pretty 52 which names make an individual more likely to become a millionaire, because apparently there's correlation between the two.

    Don't believe us? Take a look at the names that Rosenkrantz has selected below - does yours make the list?

    Name not on the list? Don't worry, it's not clear just how much research there is to back it up - so we'd say get a ticket for the Euro Millions anyway.
