Julia Goulding ‘vetoed’ husband’s plan to name baby Han Solo

Julia Goulding has "vetoed" her husband’s plan to name their baby Han Solo.
The ‘Coronation Street’ actress – who plays Shona Ramsey on the ITV soap – is expecting her first child with her spouse, Ben Silver, and is due to give birth at the end of the year.
While the couple have opted to keep the sex of their baby a surprise, Julia has had to ban her beau from naming their tot after the legendary ‘Star Wars’ character.
Julia told OK! magazine: "We’ve got a lot of girls’ names but we haven’t got any boys’ names yet."
Ben added: "I want Han if it’s a boy as then he’ll be Han Silver, which sounds like Han Solo and I’m a big ‘Star Wars’ fan."
Julia said: "Plus, Ben thinks he looks like a young Harrison Ford. I’ve ruled out Han so boys names are proving difficult.
"Ben also wanted Wolfgang but that also got vetoed. Although, weirdly, my mum wanted to call me Wolfgang if I’d been a boy – I’m glad I was a girl.
"I think you’ve got to be a certain kind of cool to pull off a name like that and I don’t think I’m that brave."
The brunette – who is 23 weeks pregnant – also insisted she’s finding it "hard" to be on set whilst she is expecting because it uses up all of her "energy".
She said: "It was hard [working whilst being pregnant] at the beginning but it’s my job and I just got on with it.
"I saved all my energy for work and when I got home my guard would go down."
