Bookies set odds on Andy Murray's baby name
With the couple’s baby girl arriving safe and sound, the bookies are looking ahead to potential names, and it’s a host of traditional names at the top of the list.
Freya, a popular name in the Highlands, and which means ‘goddess of love’ according to the Scandinavian mythology, leads the way at 6/1, followed by Alexandra (7/1) and Elizabeth (8/1), or it’s a 10/1 shot the Murrays call her Grace.

Hide AdAt 50/1 it seems unlikely they opt to name their bundle of joy after Andy’s mother, Judy, however it’s odds-on at 5/6 she is honoured with a middle name.
David Macdonald of Ladbrokes said: “We’re thrilled the Murrays have welcomed their baby girl into the world. The early money suggests they’ll opt for a traditional name, with Freya edging favouritism.”
Other betting sites, such as Coral, are offering 250-1 odds that Baby Murray becomes a Wimbledon champion within 30 years, and 100-1 that she will win a Grand Slam.
William Hill were offering 500-1 odds for their child to be a Wimbledon winner.
