21 personalised baby gifts that feel extra special, from perfect christening presents to adorable newborn keepsakes

Personalised baby gifts are guaranteed to be cherished now and as they grow older. Whether it's for your BFF's newborn, your nephew's upcoming baby shower or niece's christening, nothing compares to a gift that's personalised. There's something just extra adorable about treating them to a toy with their name on it: it adds a meaningful touch that takes your gift up a level. So, we've scoured the internet to find 21 of the very best personalised baby gifts, from fluffy monogrammed dressing gowns to customised nursery rhyme books. 

It would seem there are a few approaches you can take to baby gift giving even within the personalised category. You first option is to go practical, with something they'll actually use (and the parents will be thankful for). Case in point: this cosy blanket that's perfect as we head into winter, or this chic toy bucket which mum might not have thought to buy yet, but will no doubt come in very handy soon. 

Option number two is to go decorative. If they're a newborn, they're too young to understand the joys of receiving gifts yet anyway, so you might as well help mum and dad make their room look nice. After all, it's an expensive task putting a nursery together. A personalised print like this Noah's ark design is really special, or this map of the world that could inspire them to travel. OK, maybe that's ambitious, but at least they'll enjoy pointing out the different animals on it as they get older.

If practical and decorative don't fill the bill, you could go sentimental - with this modern baby book or sweet keepsake box that the parents will have fun filling now and the little one will definitely be grateful for later. Then, of course, there's the toys. Put it this way, you're either the cool auntie that buys them this guitar or you're not. In all seriousness, though, a kid can never have too many personalised toys, right?
