Local actor Eddie Perfect and wife Lucy Cochrane have welcomed daughter Lottie Lux, a younger sister to Kitty.

I can't imagine going through life with a cutesy name like that.

I like Lux, but really wish Lottie was short for Charlotte.

Overall I'm more irritated with how they misused Lux. Lux and it's like counterparts (statement names is what I like to think of them as) can be awesome names but you have to balance it out and put real thought into it.

If they're going to use Lux they should use a more super traditional first name like Margaret and then use it as a middle name there. Margaret Lux Lastname doesn't sound nearly as ridiculous to me. Or the reverse is true, like Lux Margaret Lastname. There's a distinct balance in play there, and I think that's why it works.

I know Charlotte is an established (and very lovely) name but it just feels more modern to me, whereas I perceive Margaret to have been used for much longer, hence why I used it as an example. I hate Charlotte Lux but Katherine Lux would've also been pretty.

Lottie Lux just sounds like a stage name to me.

I agree with all of this.
