Gogglebox star Pete Sandiford has opened up about choosing baby names with his wife, Paige, and revealing a couple of potential baby names - do you like them? Chatting to his sister, Paige, in the hit Channel 4 show, he explained: “We’ve got this Tinder thing for baby names so if we match it pings up. You see, there’s so much to think about, even down to the initials, you’ve got to think of what the initials stand for. Mum didn’t do that with me and my initials are PNS.” 

Sophie replied: “There are some unusual ones on there, aren’t they? Eddie’s cute. Jimmy and Eddie.” Looking at the app, Pete said: “Hendrix? Sounds like a type of gin.”

His sister then chuckled, pointing out that that would mean his sons were called ‘Jimmy’ and ‘Hendrix’ and then mimicked a guitar being played. 

Laughing, Pete said: “We could actually couldn’t we! That’d be nuts.”

However, the siblings are very close, with Sophie once explaining how she moved in with the pair, telling Metro: “We live in the same house. Pete bought the house and did it up. I sneakily just pitched up with my stuff one day and said, I'm not going home'. That's how I moved in.
