They will have to impatiently wait for it to melt to discover the name inside! It's such a cute way of revealing your baby's name and will increase the suspense and excitement before the name is announced.

10. A hangman style game

Where guests offer up letters to try to guess the name! Instead of the traditional hangman you could draw a flower on a wipe off board with a certain number of petals, then wipe off a petal for an incorrect answer!

You can get super creative! The photos will be such a precious keepsake you are sure to treasure forever!

They can then go home to dissolve the soap and discover the name!

18. Spell their name out with cupcakes

One of the most beautiful new baby arrival party ideas  that will look magical in photos!

19. If you have a winter/autumn baby, print or sew their name on to a stocking

20. Gift your guests keyrings with the new name on

A beautiful keepsake they can treasure forever, to remember the event by!

21. Hide the name inside a fortune cookie

Then place it in a bowl full of other fortune cookies so that no one knows which is which! You can then hand out the cookies to your guests and the guest who receives the right fortune cookie gets to make the announcement - and could also win a prize!

22. Order paper confetti in the shape of each letter of your baby's name

Throw the confetti around! Your guests will have to guess what the name is by collecting all of the letters together, then arranging them correctly. This is such a sweet, fun, romantic and creative baby name reveal surprise idea and would make for a magical photo too!

When should you reveal a baby name?

From before your little one is born, to the weeks after they are born, there is no wrong time to announce your baby's new name! A great trick is to take your time and know there's always room to change your mind before you officially register your baby. Often once a baby is born it can look completely different to the name you had in mind so it's great to keep a few favourites on hand just in case!

How do you announce a baby name on social media?

Why not share a snap of your baby's first stocking with their name on it - spell their name out with cupcakes, share a snap of a baby bracelet you gave them with their name on it, spell out the precious new name with bunting - or reveal one letter each day in a clever way to tease your loved ones and increase the anticipation and excitement!
