Former The Only Way Is Essex and The Mummy Diaries star Billie Faiers has revealed the alternate name option she considered for her third child.
Opening up to sister Sam Faiers on a recent episode of their podcast The Sam and Billie Show, Billie discussed alternate name ideas she'd had for her daughter Margot, and revealed what she might have named her if she were assigned male at birth.
"I didn't have any real suggestions for names for boys," Billie told her sister. "There was only one name.
"The only suggestion I sort of liked was William, after me."
Billie also revealed the inspiration behind her newborn daughter's name.

She explained that the name Margot comes from her and Sam's German great-grandmother. Margot's middle name is Suzanne, after Sam and Billie's mother.
"I was always set on Margot. Margot is named after our great-nan, Great Nanny Margot. She was German. She's obviously not here with us anymore," Billie said.
"And [Margot's] middle name is Suzanne, obviously after Mum. Mum is just the best, best mum, [and the] best Nan."
The reality star then went on to reveal that fans will be able to see her mum's reaction to Margot's name in the upcoming series of The Family Diaries.
