The 29-year-old actress has two kids, Mexx, 20 months, and two-month-old Monroe with her pro footballer partner Kean Bryan, and the former 'Coronation Street' star has known what to call her youngest since she was in her mid-teens.

She said: "I've had a list of names from being like 15 years old.

"Monroe has always been on my list and Mexx added a couple of years before we had him."

Brooke - who played Sophie Webster in the ITV soap - was always keen for her boys to have "unusual" names.

She wrote on Instagram Stories: "I love the fact they are unusual.

Some people hate that but I love them having different names."

'Corrie' fans are often keen to know when Brooke might be returning to the cobbles.

But they were dealt a blow last month when the actress admitted she couldn't see herself taking on the "very demanding job" again anytime soon.

She said: "I love 'Corrie' and it will always be my home, but it's a very demanding job and quite restrictive as you have to be based near Manchester.

"I've been doing it since age 11 and that's been my priority, but now I have the boys they're my priority."

However, she did give 'Corrie' supporters some hope, adding: "Maybe when they [Mexx and Monroe] get to a certain age."

But she admitted the soap's bosses might not even want her back.

She said: "If they'll have me back that is - I'll be saying, 'Please give me my job back.' "
